The daughters of Tsar Nikolai II of Russia and his wife Alexandra Feodrovna were born into the wealthiest royal family in the world. Olga, Tatiana, Maria and Anastasia had glittering futures ahead of them with the prospects of marrying the grandest royals in Europe and living their days in the lap of luxury. But their little brother’s devastating illness and their parent’s detachment from the realities outside the palace walls resulted in four astonishingly naive and sheltered young women and ultimately the downfall of the entire family. We’ll follow the four Romanov daughter's happy childhoods and tragic deaths. Follow the decades of rumors surrounding their possible escape and meet Anna Anderson and a few of the other people who claimed to be one of the children who had alluded doom.
