Plot Summary
When the dark shadow of revolution falls on the house of the Romanovs, the royal family's youngest daughter, Anastasia, barely escapes the siege. Ten years later, she knows herself only by the name Anya due to amnesia caused by hitting her head that night. But Anya holds memories of a past which was full of palaces & parties. In order to discover more about this past, she travels to Paris with two con men, Dimitri & Vladimir, who plan on passing her off as Anastasia to collect the reward money offered by the Dowager Empress Marie Feodorovna for the return of her granddaughter. But what they don't realize is they have the real Anastasia. What's worse, Grigori Rasputin, former confidant to the Czar, will not rest until he sees the last Romanov dead.
