Opis

This European-inspired tale explores the boundaries of love, music, and dance. On Elfriede's sixteenth birthday, she's gifted an enchanted music box, which belonged to a mysterious gypsy woman. Little did she know that this box came with a heavy burden. To an ordinary person, the box was just a box; but, to someone pure of heart, as she is, it was an eternal bond. In the coming days, she is confronted by an evil sorcerer, who wreaks havoc on her village, tearing away everything that she holds dear. Now alone in the world, she must muster the courage to enter the Black Forests of Germany and cross the soaring countryside of Austria. Elfriede is caught in a game of cat and mouse, and she must elude eerie shadowed creatures while running for her life. While escaping from peril, she becomes friends with magical creatures once rumored to live in the Fern Blackwood's and, with their aid, a battle plan is struck to make a blow against her evil pursuers and rescue her childhood friend. Elfriede discovers how far her magical bond is interwoven with the music box. Can she unravel the secrets that the music box holds? Does the box hold the key for rescuing her friend and saving herself from an endless pursuit? Or will she fall victim to the sorcerer's dark magic as many have done before her? With the backdrop of Europe and all its splendor, Music Box will capture the hearts of all ages with its timeless and classic storytelling.
