Summary

When concert pianist Vivienne Mourdant’s father dies, he leaves to her the care of a patient at Hurstwell Asylum. Vivienne had no idea the woman existed, and yet her portrait is shockingly familiar. When the asylum claims she was never a patient there, Vivienne is compelled to discover what happened to the figure she remembers from childhood dreams.

The longer she lingers in the deep shadows and forgotten towers at Hurstwell, the fuzzier the line between sanity and madness becomes. She hears music no one else does, receives strange missives with rose petals between the pages, and untangles far more than is safe for her to know.

But can she uncover the truth about the mysterious woman she seeks? And is there anyone at Hurstwell she can trust with her suspicions?

Joanna Davidson Politano casts a delightful spell with this lyrical look into the nature of women’s independence and artistic expression during the Victorian era—and now.

Entrancing

I couldn’t stop listening. The plot twists and resolution are totally unexpected (and I’m used to figuring what’s coming) which I’ve really enjoyed. And whilst I find the romantic interactions a tad unrealistic, the story, the way other stories interact within it, and the level of thought that’s gone into the ideas and descriptions are entrancing. The reader here also has a lovely and very pleasant voice.
