Once upon a time, a man who believed in fairy tales married a beautiful, mysterious woman named Indigo Maxwell-Casteñada. He was a scholar of myths. She was an heiress. In exchange for her love, Indigo extracted a promise: that her bridegroom would never pry into her past. But when the couple returns to Indigo´s childhood home, the House of Dreams, the bridegroom will soon find himself unable to resist. For within the crumbling manor´s extravagant rooms lurks the shadow of another girl: Azure, Indigo´s dearest childhood friend, who suddenly disappeared. As the house slowly reveals his wife´s secrets, the bridegroom will be forced to choose between reality and fantasy, even if doing so threatens to destroy their marriage . . . or their lives. Through a tapestry of secrets woven around dangerous shards of truth, Chokshi crafts an atmospheric fever dream of a novel about love and lies, secrets and betrayal, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive.
