Description

Finalist, ForeWord Reviews Book of the Year Awards

Isabella is confined for life to the college her medievalist father founded. Now a brilliant and beautiful young woman, she starts to question her vow of confinement and long for freedom. But, should Isabella risk giving up her comfortable, protected life in the college for the outside world? The dark mystery behind her confinement unravels slowly amidst quirky characters and intellectual hijinks. Who can Isabella trust? What really happened to her mother? The truth comes at a high price, and in the end Isabella must make a life-altering decision.

“… anyone who opts to pick up a copy can fully expect to read something that is both complex and coherent.” (The Peak, SFU)
