Summary:
A woman with no past. A man who seems to know her. And a monstrous garden that could be the border between their worlds
Italy, 1948
Julia Lombardi is a mystery even to herself. The beautiful model cant remember where shes from, where shes been or how she came to live in Rome. When she receives an offer to accompany celebrated eccentric artist Salvador Dalí to the Sacro Bosco Italys Garden of Monsters as his muse, shes strangely compelled to accept. It could be a chance to unlock the truth about her past
Shrouded in shadow, the garden full of giant statues that sometimes seem alive is far from welcoming. Still, from the moment of their arrival at the palazzo, Julia is inexplicably drawn to their darkly enigmatic host, Ignazio. Hes alluring yet terrifying and he seems to know her.
Posing for Dalí as the goddess Persephone, Julia finds the work to be perplexing, particularly as Dalí descends deeper into his fanaticism. To him, she is Persephone, and he insists she must eat pomegranate seeds to rejoin her king.
Between Dalís fevered persistence, Ignazios uncanny familiarity and the agonizing whispered warnings that echo through the garden, Julia is soon on the verge of unraveling. And she begins to wonder if shes truly the mythical queen of the Underworld
