Title: The Winter Princess - Kai Meyer - book

Summary :

If the Brothers Grimm had believed in the success of their tales, they probably would not have accepted the offer of their mentor and friend Goethe. While Jacob supports his family through his job as a librarian, Wilhelm no longer wants to be a burden to his brother. So when Goethe offers him a job as a tutor in Karlsruhe in the Duchy of Baden, he cannot believe his good fortune. And yet, the two brothers' journey begins with dire omens: their car overturns in a ditch. They are forced to stop at an inn where they have a fateful encounter. We find the heroes of A Conspiracy of Visionaries in southern Germany during the winter of 1912. Confronted with the mysteries of history, both great and small, they encounter terrible child thieves, a seductive Hindu princess, an aristocratic mercenary, butterfly collectors, and... Napoleon Bonaparte. Once again, Kai Meyer repaints history in the colors of his fertile imagination in this baroque adventure novel.
