I Was Anastasia by Ariel Lawhon is an absorbing and fascinating work of historical fiction. Even though the subject matter is well-documented—the mystery of Anastasia Romanov and the famed imposter Anna Anderson—Lawhon takes a fresh spin on the topic in unexpected ways.
I Was Anastasia by Ariel Lawhon is a historical fiction novel centered on the mystery of Anastasia Romanov.

There is something fascinating about the potential that the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna might have survived.
