Summary

A spellbinding, timeless and beautifully told adventure about two sisters and their journey to find each other again. Sisters Tansy and Belle are the stars of the grand finale of a circus show; a dazzling and perfectly timed trapeze act where they soar through the air like shimmering butterflies. One night, desperate to impress her older sister, Tansy attempts a spectacular jump and falls. Now terrified of heights, all Tansy can do is watch from below while Belle shines above. But when Belle mysteriously vanishes and Tansy's shadow miraculously comes to life, Tansy discovers that the courage she needs to rescue her sister may have been inside her all along
