A stunning historical debut novel of gothic proportions, telling the tale of a father's obsession and the dark consequences.
''The skin was smooth and bright as porcelain, but looked as if it would give to the touch. What manner of wood had he used? What tools to exact such detail? What paints, tints or stains to flush her with life?''So wonders the window dresser Colton Kemp when he sees the first mannequin of his new rival, a silent man simply call The Carpenter. Rocked by the sudden death of his wife in childbirth and left with twins to raise, Kemp hatches a dark and selfish plan to make his name and thwart his rival. What follows is a gothic tale of art and deception, strength and folly, love and transgression.
