A dark mystery with a self-centred, greedy protagonist who is confident she is meant for great things. She's drawn to Fyneshade and wants to uncover it's mysteries while she is burdened with the task of being governess to a troubled young girl. All the characters are not quite as they seem, and everyone has alterior motives. It's a concisely written and well paced story that has a healthy sprinkling of magic. A twisting tale with plenty of darkness to it.
