In 1705 Amsterdam, Tee Brandt is about to turn eighteen, and she can’t wait to become an adult. But her home life on Herengracht Street is full of conflicts. Her father Otto and her aunt Nella constantly quarrel and sell furniture to feed the family.
When Tee receives an invitation to the most prestigious ball in Amsterdam, her aunt hopes to change her niece’s future. But mysterious miniatures appear again, and on Tee’s birthday—coinciding with the day her mother died—family secrets begin to surface. Nella’s fears start coming true, and it seems as if someone is playing with their lives.
This captivating sequel to the novel “The Miniaturist.” People Magazine describes it as “a tumultuous life in eighteenth-century Amsterdam,” and Chelsea Bicker calls it “a riveting and deep story about family secrets.” Elizabeth Day notes that the author, Jessie Burton, has an uncanny talent for creating real pleasure for readers.
