They liked to write letters and usually signed them with their common signature OTMA, the acronym of the Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Marie and Anastasia. These four beautiful young women and their young brother, Alexis, the Heir and Tsarevich were the children of Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna of Russia. They were to share the terrible fate of their parents at Ekaterinburg in July 1918. Their only fault in the eyes of their murderers was their imperial birth. They had entered this world for but a brief moment--the eldest daughter, Grand Duchess Olga Nicholaievna was twenty-two when she died, and the youngest, Grand Duchess Anastasia Nicholaievna was merely seventeen . . . Alexis was not to see his fourteenth birthday . . . . . this is their story!
