Synopsis

Ghosts, grifters...and a missing heir in 1890s Europe. It's easier to conduct a séance when the dead aren't trying to contact you. As Molly Dark knows all too well, the problem with being able to see ghosts is that they never tell you what you wish to know. For instance, how a proper young lady like Miss Dark is supposed to support an impoverished family after her father has died a ruined man. Or how she is going to impersonate a missing princess long enough to steal a fortune out from under the collective noses of a whole family of royal monsters. Or exactly why the charming imposter claims to be none other than Grand Duke Vasily Nikolaevich, when he certainly isn't a prince...or a vampire. Alas, the dead normally have something far more unsettling to impart... Return to the Bête Epoque, an 1890s Europe ruled by monsters, in Miss Dark's Apparitions! Leverage meets The Parasol Protectorate in this whimsical historical fantasy caper. Be the first to join Miss Dark in the spooky mansions of 1890s Europe - preorder Tall & Dark today!

Is Tall & Dark appropriate for my child?

Suitable for most readers 13 and up.

A lighthearted historical fantasy with a con artist heroine who can see ghosts, impersonating royalty in vampire-ruled 1890s Europe. Whimsical tone with mild peril and no explicit content.
