'He's gone the same way as those little birds that bothered me with their awful songs! And you will too, you and your horrible heart-music, because you won't stay out of my woods!'
There's a dead girl in a birdcage in the woods. That's not unusual. Isola Wilde sees a lot of things other people don't. But when the girl appears at Isola's window, her every word a threat, Isola needs help.
Her real-life friends - Grape, James and new boy Edgar - make her forget for a while. And her brother-princes - magical creatures seemingly lifted from the pages of the French fairytales Isola idolises - will protect her with all the fierce love they possess.
It may not be enough.
Isola needs to uncover the truth behind the dead girl's demise . . . before the ghost steals Isola's last breath.
