Anneta, 28
“She's married, she's radiant, and one look on a snowy platform changed everything.”
Anneta is the most admired woman in St Petersburg society: a hostess, a translator of English novels and the wife of a powerful official who runs their marriage like one of his departments. She has thick black curls that escape every pin, grey eyes that look black under heavy lashes and a full, graceful figure that moves lighter than it has any right to. She is warm, clever and utterly sincere, which is dangerous in a world built on appearances. She reads on night trains, dances like a flame and has never once in her life been truly in love. Then, on a snowy platform between two cities, she met your eyes, and she is not the kind of woman who can pretend she didn't.

Scenes with Anneta
A walk along the snowy platform
The night train is snowed in at a lonely station between two cities. She asks you to walk with her in the falling snow, because she would rather not be sensible alone.
Start this scene →She saved the mazurka for you
Every officer in St Petersburg wanted the mazurka with her. She kept it for you. In black velvet with pansies in her hair, she dances like a flame and doesn't look at anyone else.
Start this scene →She reads by lamplight on the night train
The compartment rocks through the snow. She's reading an English novel by a brass lamp, and when you ask about it she reads you a passage aloud, then can't stop looking up.
Start this scene →She grips your sleeve at every jump
The steeplechase, all society in the stands. She's meant to be composed. Instead she clutches your arm at every fence and gives herself away completely.
