Once upon a haunted circus there was a frigid witch, a fiery ringmaster, and a thin tightrope between LOVE and MONOMANIA.
America, the late 1800s. The diary of aerialist and accused witch Yasmin Lange has been unearthed after her sudden death in the Fair of Phantoms.
As her journal reveals a life of social isolation, supernatural mystery, and romantic obsession, the reader ponders whether Yasmin is unhinged or a hex witch-hopelessly infatuated with the ringmaster, yet destined to leave chaos and ruin in her heartbroken wake.
Book 1 of The Witch and the Ringmaster duology, Waldgeist is a Victorian Gothic symphony of societal and demonic oppression, tragic yearning, and the dire consequences of choosing apathy over passion.
Written for fans of the Brontë sisters, The Witch and the Ringmaster beckons to readers of women's literary classics with paranormal adversity, fantasy twists, and the romantic drama of morally-gray lovers in Manteufel's Victorian Gothic debut.
