A retelling of the beloved fairy tale, "Anastasia,", The Diamond Secret is the story of a Nadya, a mischevious kithen girl in twentieth century Russia. Having nearly drowned in the Iset River during the turmoil of the Revolution, she has no memory of her past and longs for a life she cannot remember. Then two young men unexpectedly arrive at the tavern, claiming that Nadya's long-lost grandmother has sent them to find her. Yearning for family and friendship, she agrees to accompany them to Paris in hopes of transforming a faint memory into a reality. Nadya eagerly embarks on her journey, never dreaming it will be one of laughter, love -- and betrayal.
