Summary

Heartbreaking and gripping novel of a Russian princess and a journey to solve a mystery that might change everything we know about the tragic Romanov family"--, Provided by publisherIf you loved I Am Anastasia by Ariel Lawhon you won't want to miss this novel about her sister, Grand Duchess Maria. What really happened to this lost Romanov daughter? A new novel perfect for anyone curious about Anastasia, Maria, and the other lost Romanov daughters, by the author of The Secret Wife. 1918: Pretty, vivacious Grand Duchess Maria Romanov, the nineteen-year-old daughter of the fallen Tsar Nicholas II, lives with her family in suffocating isolation, a far cry from their once-glittering royal household. Her days are a combination of endless boredom and paralyzing fear; her only respite are clandestine flirtations with a few of the guards imprisoning the family--never realizing her innocent actions could mean the difference between life and death. 1973: When Val Doyle hears her father's end-of-life confession, "I didn't want to kill her," she's stunned. So, she begins a search for the truth--about his words and her past. The clues she discovers are baffling--a jewel-encrusted box that won't open and a camera with its film intact. What she finds out pulls Val into one of the world's greatest mysteries--what truly happened to the Grand Duchess Maria? --Amazon.com1918: Grand Duchess Maria Romanov, nineteen-year-old daughter of the fallen Tsar Nicholas II, lives with her family in suffocating isolation.
