A deliciously gothic story of wishes and curses – a new dark fairy tale set against a Victorian backdrop full of lace and smoke.
‘Deliciously dark’ Woman Magazine
Once upon a time Ella had wished for more than her life as a lowly maid.
Now forced to work hard under the unforgiving, lecherous gaze of the man she once called stepfather, Ella’s only refuge is in the books she reads by candlelight, secreted away in the library she isn’t permitted to enter.
One night, among her beloved books of far-off lands, Ella’s wishes are answered. At the stroke of midnight, a fairy godmother makes her an offer that will change her life: seven wishes, hers to make as she pleases. But each wish comes at a price and Ella must decide whether it’s one she’s willing to pay…
A smouldering, terrifying new spin on Cinderella – perfect for fans of Laura Purcell and Erin Morgenstern.

Detta är historisk fiction med magisk realism snarare än fantasy som jag trodde. En mycket deprimerande bok där man redan från början kan förutse att allt kommer gå åt skogen och huvudpersonens karaktärsutveckling går åt fel håll, dvs jag gillade henne mindre och mindre.

Som en tågkrasch i slow motion, helt omöjlig att lägga ner trots att allt otvetydigt kommer gå åt skogen.
