The Luster of Life - Paperback

by M. L. Baskerville (Author)

12-year-old Florence Andrews has always felt alone-even before her mother's tragic death. On the one-year anniversary of her mother's death, a mysterious lightning storm rattles the gates of Sacred Souls Cemetery and sucks Florence into another dimension called Castalia.

When Florence wakes in this new and unfamiliar world, she is taken in by a monstrous showman named Melvin Darke, the manager of a magical place called The Marigold Theater. She quickly learns that in Castalia, all the folklore from her books is very real.

Not all is as it seems; the streets of Castalia are being stalked by a dreadful monster, and in an instant, Florence's magical escape becomes a nightmare.

The clock is ticking, the pendulum is swinging, and the show is just about to begin.
