In a quiet Parisian room, a skilled artisan works by lamp and flame, shaping delicate silver with patient care. Across the story’s opening pages, you glimpse a world of high status and hidden peril, where a devoted guardian educates a young woman to see beauty, virtue, and power in new lights. This is a tale of character, society, and the cost of keeping faith with love and truth.
- Follow the life of Annette de St. Morin as she grows under the care of Count de Casteln au, learning music, literature, and the manners that shape her world.
- Explore the clash between private virtue and a society that prizes outward glitter over inner strength.
- Experience a vivid Parisian setting during the era of Louis XV, where courts, towns, and hidden rooms intersect with real danger.
- Meet a cast of distinct personalities, from the artful craftsman to the calculating baron, to a police chief who upholds order with unflinching resolve.
Ideal for readers who enjoy historical fiction anchored in social detail, moral questions, and richly drawn characters set against a shifting political backdrop.
