An enthralling and enchanting adventure set in turn-of-the-century Vienna from the author of the bestselling Journey to the River Sea.
In 1896, in a pilgrim church in the Alps, an abandoned baby girl is found by a cook and a housemaid.
Annika grows up in the servants' quarters of the house of some eccentric Viennese professors, but dreams of the day when her real mother comes to find her, and she discovers who she really is.
Then her dream comes true-but not in a way that she could ever have imagined...
Eva Ibbotson was born in Vienna, but spent her early childhood travelling backwards and forwards across Europe between the homes of her father, a scientist, and her mother, a novelist, who separated when she was three. When the Nazis came to power, her family fled to England. She lives in Newcastle, where she brought up her four children and has written the bestselling novels for both adults and children that have been published all around the world.
