New Zealand author

Two French storytellers and a runaway girl travel through fairytale lands, Italian theatres and the battlefields of France in search of a place to belong as Napoleon's Empire falls, from the author of Josephine's Garden.

Remi Victoire is the golden child among all the theatre orphans; he dreams of a life on a Paris stage. But when this future is stolen from him, Remi and his faithful friend Pascal turn their backs on Paris forever. With Saskia, a runaway orphan girl, Remi and Pascal form a theatre troupe, travelling through the fairytale lands that are the home of the Brothers Grimm, finally finding a safe haven in Venice. As Napoleon's vast Empire crumbles, the French storytellers discover that Paris itself is now at risk of invasion and they fear for the loved ones they have left behind. From picturesque villages to Italian theatres and on to the battlefields outside of Paris, this is a beautifully told story about bonds of love and friendship, the importance of stories and finding a place to belong.

'Stephanie Parkyn is a rising star in the historical fiction world.’
Mrs B’s Book Reviews

'A luminous, enthralling tale of love, treachery, treason and friendship … full of unexpected twists and turns.' (on Josephine's Garden)
Kate Forsyth, bestselling and award-winning author of The Chain of Charm series

'This is where Stephanie Parkyn really shines as a writer of historical fiction. She recreates her setting to perfection, warts and all, and does not shy away from the ridiculous, nor the obscene ... her work is coloured with an authenticity and attention to detail that any lover of historical fiction will appreciate.'
Theresa Smith Writes
