The Fortune Teller's Daughter

Serafine Moreau grew up on the grimy edges of cities that were never home, raised at the capricious whims of her bohemian, fortune teller mother. She learned young how to move unseen through crowds, acquire things that didn't belong to her, and disappear at the first sign of trouble. It wasn't a perfect life but it was theirs - until a stranger appeared one unremarkable autumn morning to steal the fortune teller's life and leave Sera with nothing but questions.

Now alone, Sera wanders lost, strangled by the past and unable to pursue her future. Even the cards reveal nothing. So when an invitation addressed to her mother's stage name arrives from an old carnival outfit looking to recruit the late fortune teller, Sera answers instead.

Bewitched by the carnival's handsome illusionist and the dark whimsy of the Carnival Imaginaire, Sera finally feels like she's home until the mystery of her mother's death unravels with the secrets of the carnival's past. At the center of the brewing storm hides Sera's heart that can't hope to survive another loss.
