 This Week’s Teen Book:
Anastasia's
Secret
by Susanne Emily Dunlap
For
Anastasia
Romanov,
life
as
the
privileged
daughter
of
Russia’s
last
tsar
is
about
to
be
torn
apart
by
the
bloodshed
of
revolution.
Ousted
from
the
imperial
palace
when
the
Bolsheviks
seize
control
of
the
government,
Anastasia
and
her
family
are
exiled
to
Siberia.
But
even
while
the
rebels
debate
the
family’s
future
with
agonizing
slowness
and
the
threat
to
their
lives
grows
more
menacing,
romance
quietly
blooms
between
Anastasia
and
Sasha,
a
sympathetic
young
guard
she
has
known
since
childhood.
But
will
the
strength
of
their
love
be
enough
to
save
Anastasia
from
a
violent
death?
Inspired
by
the
mysteries
that
have
long
surrounded
the
last
days
of
the
Romanov
family,
Susanne
Dunlap’s
new
novel
is
a
haunting
vision
of
the
life—and
love
story—of
Russia’s
last
princess.
