The Musician's Daughter
of Susanne Dunlap (Goodreads Author)
Series: Theresa Schurman #1
Description
Murder and loveâfrom the halls of Viennaâs imperial family to a perilous gypsy camp Amid the glamour of Prince Nicholas Esterhazyâs court in 18th-century Vienna, murder is afoot. Or so fifteen-year-old Theresa Maria is convinced when her musician father turns up dead on Christmas Eve, his valuable violin missing, and the only clue to his death a strange gold pendant around his neck. Then her fatherâs mentor, the acclaimed composer Franz Joseph Haydn, helps her through a difficult time by making her his copyist and giving her insight in to her fatherâs secret life. Itâs there that Theresa begins to uncover a trail of blackmail and extortion, even as she discovers honorâand the possibility of a first, tentative love. Thrumming with the weeping strains of violins, as well as danger and deception, this is an engrossing tale of murder, romance, and music that readers will find hard to forget.
