Details

Eighteenth-century Vienna: Amid the glamour of musical court life, fifteen-year-old Theresa Maria must solve the brutal murder of her father, an acclaimed violinist. Who stole his violin, and why was he found near a Gypsy encampment, wearing a valuable pendant Theresa has never seen before? Her quest for answers soon puts her in the middle of an ongoing battle between serf sympathizers and the Hungarian nobility.

The search for clues leads her into the middle of a palace intrigue involving the legal rights of land owners, serfs, and the Romany people—the Gypsies whose music Theresa Maria’s father so admired. It also places Theresa Maria dangerously close to her lascivious uncle Wolkenstein, a powerful opponent of her father’s cause and a man willing to sell his relatives into sexual slavery for his own political gain.
