"I had a hard time putting the book down to go to sleep at night." Kaela Mays

By the time Suzanne Valadon--a bastard from the tenements--was 15 years- old, she's been a horse walker, a milliner's assistant, a funeral wreath maker, and a circus acrobat, but that was just the beginning of her adventures. Here is her story, along with Ellie's, a modern woman a century later, at a crossroads of her life, who pulls Suzanne from the shadows of the past into the light.
