From the bestselling author of The Lioness of Morocco and The Elephant Keeper’s Daughter comes the story of a determined young woman discovering friendship, love, and her true self on the eve of World War I.
Vienna, Christmas 1889: A newborn girl is abandoned at Vienna General Hospital and placed in a foundling home, where a devoted caretaker becomes her first source of love.
Fanny Schindler grows from a precocious child into a strong-willed young woman. Defying societal expectations, she becomes an apprentice at one of Austria-Hungary’s most prestigious fashion houses. Along the way, she forms life-changing bonds—with a cherished friend, a trusted confidant, and a dashing career soldier who stirs her heart.
But as the world plunges into war, loyalties are tested and friendships strained. When buried secrets about her past emerge, Fanny must decide what truly matters—and what she is willing to fight for—in a world forever changed.
