'The power that I have dreamed of all my life is mine at last!' How
far is a mother prepared to go to secure her daughter's future?
Madame Fontaine, widow of an eminent chemist, has both the
determination and the cunning to bring young Minna's marriage plans
to fruition, with dangerous consequences for anyone who dares to
stand in her way. But has she met her match in Jack Straw, one-time
inmate of Bedlam lunatic asylum? It will take a visit to the morgue
to find out who triumphs - and who comes out alive. Reminiscent of
Collins's blockbusters The Woman in White and Armadale, this
suspenseful case study in villainy is set against the financial
world of 1820s Frankfurt and tells the story of two widows, one of
them devoted to realizing her husband's social reforms, the other
equally devoted to the pursuit of her daughter's happiness. ABOUT
