Annika's life is a mystery. No one knows who she is or where she comes from. She was abandoned as a tiny baby in Austria in 1896.
Annika is adopted by a cook and a housemaid who work for some peculiar professors in Vienna. Although her upbringing is very odd, she loves her home in the city of a great Emperor and the amazing white stallions that dance in his famous Riding School. She hopes that one day her real mother will come to find her - but she meets someone else. A very old lady who tells wonderful stories of a life of romance and adventure, and the fabulous collection of jewels she owned long ago. And then, suddenly, strange and dramatic events seem to reveal the astonishing secret of who Annika really is... ISBN:9781405050029
