Mystery Stories for Bedtime: Oracle of Delphi, Changelings and Grand Duchess Anastasia

In these three new historical mysteries, I tell you about the Pythia, the High Priestess of Apollo in Delphi, who for more than a millennium delivered sought-after prophecies in a state of frenzy - but the Oracle may have been more ancient than Classical Greece. The second story is about the myth of changelings, that is to say newborns, or young children that would have been exchanged by fairies, or trolls in the Scandinavian version. Why this belief, and how did it appear? I also added a touch of true crime with the story of Bridget Cleary, a woman murdered in 1895 because she was believed to be a changeling. The third story takes us from Russia and Germany to the USA in the 20th Century: who were all these women claiming to be Grand Duchess Anastasia, the youngest daughter of the last Tsar of Russia, miraculously alive? This modern mystery found an answer thanks to DNA, I tell you how, and a little bit about Eugenia Smith or Anna Anderson.
