It’s February 1920 in Berlin, Germany. A young woman has been found floating in a canal. She's still alive, but barely.
Clinging to life, the woman refuses to give any information about her identity. She is dubbed ‘Frauline Unbekannt’, an equivalent of Jane Doe meaning ‘Miss Unknown’.
But then people come forward with an extraordinary claim: Frauline Unbekannt is actually Princess Anastasia, one of the four daughters of Tsar Nicholas II.
But how? The entire Romanov family had been executed four years earlier. But now, there is hope that at least one of them may have survived...
A special guest host joins us for this case! (Remastered)
