A mysterious steamer trunk.
A magical dress.
And one unexpected inheritance...
On the home front in 1944, Kate wants to do her part for the war effort.
She'd prefer filling in for the window dressers at the New York department store where she works, but her mother insists on sending her to audition for roles she never gets.
When relatives arrive from war-torn Poland with a mysterious steamer trunk and an even more mysterious story, her life is about to get complicated.
Kate's aunt, who is suffering from dementia, tries to convince Kate she is next in line to be the keeper of the wardrobe for Cinderella's family--the real Cinderella.
She'll have to prove that she's worthy to continue the family line and keep Cinderella's dress safe from the people who want it most.
This might be the most important role Kate has ever auditioned for. But will she get to the truth before it's forgotten?
If you like the magic and warmth of fairytale retellings, then you'll love this continuation of the Cinderella story.
