WINNER - 2014 PARIS BOOK FESTIVAL BEST E-BOOK In the cold winter of Strasbourg, a medieval town in the North-East of France, 11-year-old Clotilde is living a quiet existence with her frail father, a Catholic priest.

She is forced into a strange land where nobody understands her and where her precocious attitude leads her to the shocking truth about her existence.
