This volume wraps up the Dispossessed trilogy that began with The Beautiful and the Cursed. A complicated paranormal romance set during the early twentieth century, the novel is rich in Parisian atmosphere and period details, as well as in the turgid accounts of forbidden love affairs; these romances, rather than the final showdowns between warring supernatural factions, will be what capture readers' affection.
