Enero Demico es una joven curiosa que vive en una extensa mansión llena de objetos y tesoros peculiares. Como la pupila del rico Sr. Locke, se siente un poco distinta a todo aquello que la rodea. Entre todos los artefactos que habitan la casa, Enero descubrirá un maravilloso libro: un libro que la llevará a otros mundos y que cuenta una historia repleta de puertas secretas, de amor, aventura y peligro. Cada vez que pase una de sus páginas se le revelarán verdades imposibles hasta descubrir que la historia que lee está cada vez más entrelazada con la suya propia. In the early 1900s, a young woman searches for her place in the world and the mystery behind a magical door in this captivating debut. In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored, and utterly out of place. Then she finds a strange book. A book that carries the scent of other worlds, and tells a tale of secret doors, of love, adventure, and danger. Each page turn reveals impossible truths about the world and she discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own.
