Nominee for Readers’ Favorite Historical Fiction (2014) Award-winning bestseller The Miniaturist (made into a major BBC series starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Romola Garai and Paapa Essiedu)
424 pages, Paperback
Eighteen-year-old Nella Oortman arrives amongst the wealthy elite of Amsterdam to start her new life as the wife of merchant trader Johannes Brandt. He gives her an extraordinary wedding gift: a cabinet-sized replica of their home, furnished by a mysterious miniaturist.
But as Johannes shows himself to be as elusive as the artist he employed, Nella finds herself mainly in the company of his acerbic sister, Marin. Slowly uncovering the secrets of the closed world of the Brandt household, and shaken as the tiny creations in her dollhouse begin to mirror their real-life counterparts in unexpected ways, Nella realizes the escalating dangers that await them all.
As Nella uncovers the secrets of her new household, she realises the escalating dangers they face. The miniaturist seems to hold their fate in her hands – but does she plan to save or destroy them?
