Julianna Dryden doesn't wear black. Recently widowed, she wears costly furs and snakeskin boots, and though poor as the church mouse regularly travels to London, to the home of the celebrated artist, Lady Evelyn Carrington, Society hostess and close intimate of Bertie, The Prince of Wales.
Beautiful Ju-ju Dryden has mildly scandalous secrets that she keeps hidden as best she can under her costly furs. Spring of 1897, she and Matty, her son, move to a cottage in Norfolk known as the Needed and Necessary. The cottage has secrets of its own - old secrets hidden in darkness, jagged and sharp as broken Meissen china, that, given light and laughter (and a Wolf's howl) will gain life reaching out to choke Julianna.
