About the Book

Toby is the orphaned nephew of the Theo Trentham, leader of a motley, down-at-heel troupe of actors touring Louisiana. They had hoped for great things in New Orleans during the Carnival. Instead a spiv has taken their money but booked them remote venues in the countryside. On Christmas Eve, the company straggle away from yet another seedy, unwelcoming town and are caught in a rainstorm. They shelter in a crumbling mansion named Illyria, occupied only by an enigmatic black woman, Marie LaRoche, and her mistress, a spirited Creole girl, Isabelle de Castelon. Toby falls desperately and instantly in love. But as Toby unravels the mysteries of Isabelle's origins, he begins to suspect something terrible will engulf them all. As the days gather pace towards the Mardi Gras festivities, magic, secrets, masks and disguises all come to a dangerous head.

Review :
... carefully constructed, well researched and ambitions novel. - writeaway.org Reading one of Sophie Masson's books is like standing on top of a lonely mountain at midnight, under a star-filled sky ... Her work has that same sense of clarity, magic and mystery ... - GARTH NIX THE TEMPESTOUS VOYAGE OF HOPEWELL SHAKESPEARE: 'Masterly' - The Times Step aboard .. and embark on a magical mystery voyage. - Books for Keeps Sophie Masson is decidedly a captivating narrator who certainly knows how to hypnotise her readers. - Lollipops CLEMENTINE: 'A fabulous novel ...' - Adele Geras, TES CARABAS: 'A sophisticated and timeless tale of magic and human nature.' - Weekend Australian One of the strengths of Masson's work is this creation of parallel worlds of fantasy which interweave with the old folk tale but also produce echoes of myth. - Australian Book Review
