Summary
So, because I've realized I'm bad at writing summaries so instead here is the basic premise of the story. Basically it's a toxic relationship that develops while in the background a civil war is going on. It's kinda set in a really inaccurate version of high medival france and the political component is based on the Armagnac–Burgundian Civil War if anyone knows about that. It's between a female Quasimodo and an orginal character who is a mini sociopath.

Caitlyn never expected what she'd find out after coming to America once she graduated from oxford. She knew she was going to visit her family for a holiday before settling down and finding a job. She didn't expect to be thrown into work once she got there, or how hard living in prohibition would be, or meeting a woman at a jazz club she'd been invited to by her boss.
Plus, there was the fact that her parents kept a secret from her she isn't sure she was meant to unwrap. Then again she didn't know how they thought she wouldn't figure it out.
