After her father finishes reading her favorite fairy tale, young Claire dreams of what would come next and, with her beloved unicorn by her side, is transported to a world of fairy tales where princesses, pumpkin patches, a Frog Prince, and all things magical exist.
Sixteen-year old Claire, overprotected her entire life by a hardworking worry-wart Mom, must now find the father she never knew in Paris, France, and soon, or she'll never have the chance: he'll be dead. What starts out as a simple summer visit to Paris with her best friend Camden and their guardian, Claire's spinster aunt May, quickly splinters into multiple mysteries: where is her father? What did he do to make such tenacious enemies? The silver ring he sent her-can it really protect her? What do the ring's Chinese characters mean? Claire and her plucky friend Camden are soon up to their eyebrows in predicaments no one could possibly predict, each one more impossible to escape than the last. With the aid of a peculiarly skillful friend they make along the way, Claire and Camden end up fighting for their lives-and for Claire's wayward father's freedom-in a shadowy Shanghai and an underground Paris few ever see-or would want to see.For more about Claire's adventure, visit the author's website at www.oftwominds.com .
from Claire Walker: "I've heard it said that a particular scent can take you back in time quicker than anything else. I don't know if it was the smell of that wine, or the quick taste, but I didn't just go back in time-I reverted to the person I'd been months before. In an instant I came alive and crazily eager. I grabbed the car keys and my wallet. Just a few blocks down the street was a twenty-four-hour liquor store." Desperate moments such as this punctuate Claire Walker's days. Alcoholism has tainted her adult years and destroyed her marriage. At thirty-seven she fights back, determined to become the mother her children deserved but never had. As she struggles for sobriety, a good friend, Ziggy Estes, becomes her crutch, and the love of a younger man soothes her battered ego. But Claire realizes that if she is to own the victory, the battle must be hers alone.

Claire Trevor (1910-2000) is best remembered as the alluring blonde femme fatale in such iconic noir films as Murder, My Sweet (1944) and Raw Deal (1948). Yet she was a versatile performer who brought rare emotional depth to her art. She was effective in a range of diverse roles, from an outcast prostitute in John Ford's classic Stagecoach (1939) to the ambitious tennis mother in Hard, Fast and Beautiful (1951) to the embittered wife of a landowner in William Wellman's overlooked gem My Man and I (1952). Nominated for three Oscars, she deservedly won Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Gaye Dawn, a gangster's broken-down moll in Key Largo (1948). The author covers her life and career in detail, recognizing her as one of the finest actresses of her generation.
