Edith's ancient home is full of secrets…and dragons are the least of them. As the new dragon keeper in the hidden valley of Ormdale, Edith expects her first dragon mating season to involve venomous bites and amorous wyverns. She doesn't expect an inconveniently appealing suitor next door, or a dragon poacher lurking in the outbuildings, or a family scandal in the Abbey.
As a Victorian clergyman's daughter, Edith Worms has seen everything — until a mythical salamander tumbles out of the fireplace into her lap. A cosy gothic fantasy, deliciously full of dragons, secrets, and tea.
