This book goes far beyond the glamorous pre-war ballrooms and grand villas of Vienna's society to reveal a hidden world, where characters learn to navigate a reality of growing suspicion, snobbery, and war. The author examines the era of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, through the lives and relationships of key figures. Yet beneath the glittering surface, Vienna's elite teetered on the precipice of the abyss. Unrest and political machinations ran like cracks through the grand facades of seemingly perfect lives. People like Aurora and Stornohoff - two people who, despite their political and social differences, fall deeply in love - quickly discover the true face of Viennese society and wartime pressures.
