So far this is my favorite of Maguire's books, followed closely by "Wicked". Set in Holland with the Tulip Mania this book is from the point of view of a plain girl with a half-wit sister who ends up with a beautiful stepsister. I found the information about painting, how art is a commercial product and art's significant impact in the merchant systems to be very interesting and well woven into the story. The last chapter had an excellent twist/spin . . . that trumped this book over Wicked.
