About this book
This is a literary historical fiction with a suspenseful mystery at its core. Set in the late 1590s, it centers on a royal commission to create a grand manuscript, produced by a circle of artists under strict secrecy. Rich in art, history, and moral intrigue, it invites adults and curious readers who enjoy immersive storytelling, lush language, and thought-provoking questions about creativity and belief.
The narrative unfolds through multiple voices—the painters, patrons, and the enigmatic Master who guides the project—and follows a murder that unsettles the atelier. As clues surface in half-finished miniatures, delicate calligraphy, and hushed conversations, the line between loyalty and rivalry becomes dangerous.
Through sumptuous detail and careful pacing, the book blends art history with a detective arc, offering a reading experience that feels both immersive and reflective. Readers move from workshop to court, piecing together motives and meanings while considering how images, texts, and power shape truth.
