Product Description Imperial Russia's final secret revealed! When the Tsar of Russia, Nicholas II and his family were assassinated on 17 July, 1918 in Yekaterinburg, they left behind a mystery that remained hidden for almost one hundred years. The Last Tsar, as he was known, was not in fact the final Russian ruler as is commonly believed. Following his forced abdication in May 1917 and his move into exile, secret negotiations took place which saw him offer the crown to his brother Mikhail, then onto Leovitch. Leo graciously accepted the title, thus establishing his eldest daughter, Arijana Valentina Fedorova as heir to the throne. Arijana was at times controversial for the contact she maintained with Grigori Rasputin and her prophetic visions in which she forewarned the fall of the Empire. This is her story waiting to be told.
