Nella’s life takes a mysterious turn when she receives a miniature cabinet as a wedding gift, complete with tiny, intricately crafted figures. As she becomes increasingly fascinated by the cabinet and the enigmatic miniaturist behind it, Nella uncovers hidden secrets about her new family. The book explores themes of power, control, societal expectations, and the complexities of family dynamics, all set against the backdrop of a thriving, turbulent city.
