Madame Mirszanya is a gifted and legendary clairvoyant but she is getting older and there is no one to continue her important work. No one, that is, except for her estranged granddaughter Lilai, who has no interest or apparent aptitude. Lilai is plunged into drama and uncertainty by circumstance. She is left to care for her gravely ill mother and the children of their alcoholic father. Set at the turn of the 20th century, a Romany family struggle for survival and acceptance in a succession of unwelcoming communities. Rich in period and cultural detail, this novel vividly transports the reader into a much-misunderstood community. The result is a fascinating, dramatic and heart-warming tale of survival against formidable odds.
