FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE FROZEN RIVER


‘Told with masterful intensity and moments of true human compassion’ Helen Simonson, New York Times bestselling author of The Summer Before the War


‘Inspired by history, and infused with imagination and intrigue, this novel satisfies with every twist and turn’ Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times bestselling author of Becoming Mrs. Lewis


‘A gorgeous, haunting puzzle of a book that will grip you until the final page’ Abbott Kahler, New York Times bestselling author of Sin in the Second City 


In an enthralling new feat of historical suspense, Ariel Lawhon unravels the extraordinary twists and turns in Anna Anderson's 50 year battle to be recognized as Anastasia Romanov. Is she the Russian Grand Duchess, a beloved daughter and revered icon, or is she an imposter, the thief of another woman's legacy?


Countless others have rendered their verdict. Now it is your turn.


Russia, July 17, 1918: Under direct orders from Vladimir Lenin, Bolshevik secret police force Anastasia Romanov, along with the entire imperial family, into a damp basement in Siberia, where they face a merciless firing squad. None survive. At least that is what the executioners have always claimed.


Germany, February 17, 1920: A young woman bearing an uncanny resemblance to Anastasia Romanov is pulled shivering and senseless from a canal. Refusing to explain her presence in the freezing water or even acknowledge her rescuers, she is taken to the hospital where an examination reveals that her body is riddled with countless horrific scars. When she finally does speak, this frightened, mysterious young woman claims to be the Russian grand duchess.


As rumours begin to circulate through European society that the youngest Romanov daughter has survived the massacre at Ekaterinburg, old enemies and new threats are awakened. The question of who Anna Anderson is and what actually happened to Anastasia Romanov spans fifty years and touches three continents. This thrilling saga is every bit as moving and momentous as it is harrowing and twisted.
