About the Book
Alexander Kakhovskiy had it all: wealth, privilege, and the American dream at his fingertips. But when a car crash shatters his world, he awakens in the heart of 19th-century Tsarist Russia.

What begins as a surreal nightmare becomes a soul-altering odyssey. Guided by visions of his grandfather and haunted by a legacy of saints and revolutionaries, Alex must confront the ghosts of his lineage—all the way from noblemen loyal to the tsar, to radicals who helped shape the Soviet machine. Amidst war, betrayal, and spiritual reckoning, he discovers something he never expected: a timeless love and a second chance at redemption.
Spanning centuries and continents—from Ukraine and Bulgaria to America—this genre-blending novel weaves historical fiction, memoir, and spiritual awakening into one unforgettable journey.
Finding Your Roots: One Man’s Journey to Discover His Ukrainian, Greek, and Bulgarian Roots by Kiril Kristoff is a tale of identity, legacy, and the mysterious ways our past calls us home.
