The Queen of Spades

CHF 2.12

In the glittering drawing rooms of 19th-century St. Petersburg,
where fortune is won and lost with the turn of a card,
an ancient secret lies buried—known only to the Countess
Anna Fedotovna, now a frail and silent witness to a past
that refuses to stay hidden.

Hermann, a young engineer officer of cold mind and restless ambition,
becomes obsessed with a rumour: the Countess once knew
the secret of three cards that guarantee victory.
It is a knowledge said to bring limitless wealth to whoever possesses it.
To Hermann, it is not a game of chance—it is destiny.

Driven by greed and the hope of commanding his future,
Hermann resolves to extract the secret by any means.
But what begins as a pursuit of fortune
soon descends into a nightmare of guilt, terror and madness.

When the Queen of Spades appears,
the line between reality and the supernatural is shattered,
and the price of forbidden knowledge
proves far higher than any stake at the table.

A chilling tale of obsession, the supernatural
and the destructive power of human desire,
The Queen of Spades is one of the most haunting
stories ever written.
