Atemberaubendes Romantasy-Debüt ab 14 zur Zeit der Belle Époque – mit einer prickelnden Dreiecks-Liebesgeschichte in der glanzvoll verruchten Opernwelt Cleodora ist ein Niemand. Nach dem Tod ihres Vaters kann sie sich und ihre sterbenskranke Schwester kaum über Wasser halten. Lutèces glanzvolle Welt der magischen Talente ist für sie unerreichbar. Als Cleo von der berüchtigten Madame Dahlia bei einem Diebstahl erwischt wird, nimmt ihr Leben eine unglaubliche Wendung: Dahlia macht sie mit Hilfe eines Gesangs-Talents über Nacht zur gefeierten Sängerin an der Oper. Sie erlebt Galas und opulente Bälle. Je länger Cleo im Rampenlicht steht, desto weniger kann sie sich Dahlia entziehen. Sie soll für sie das Talent des verflucht gutaussehenden Vicomte Lenoir stehlen. Ein Talent, für das er nicht viel übrig zu haben scheint – jedoch umso mehr für Cleodora ... Romantasy at its best: opulent, düster und verflucht sexy - Love Triangle Story für alle ab 14 Jahren, die Stephanie Garber und Adalyn Grace lieben! Mit besonders schöner Ausstattung in der ersten Auflage, ein echtes Romantasy- Schmuckstück, modern und frisch erzählt von einem neuen YA-Talent: Debütautorin Adi Denner ist selbst Opersängerin und zeigt uns eindrucksvoll, dass dass jede Form von Kunst in Wahrheit Magie ist.
