But the devious Gonzalo has many surprises up his sleeve, beginning with the revelation that Alaric is not the only suitor., ,As the days pass, Alaric is trapped in a nightmarish bidding war, in which the price keeps spiraling up and the terms become ever more outrageous, yet he canâ€™t afford to walk away. Then comes the first attempt on Alaricâ€™s life., ,Through it all, Molly is powerless to help him, for her magical Gift sends her nothing now but terrible forebodings, and visions of an enormous cat who speaks in metaphors of chess. As for Princess Elizabetta, who is as clever as she is beautifulâ€”is she really Mollyâ€™s friend, or just another player in her fatherâ€™s crafty game?, ,The thrilling story that began with the acclaimed novels The Silver Bowl and The Cup and the Crown comes to a spectacular and surprising conclusion in The Princess of Cortova
