Einst hat Emberlyn das Tanzen geliebt. Doch als sie in die legendäre Balletttruppe der »Marionettes« aufgenommen wurde, hat sich ihr Traum in einen Alptraum verwandelt. Denn die Tänzerinnen heißen nicht nur Marionetten, sie sind buchstäblich lebendige Puppen. Der Direktor des Balletts bindet die Mädchen durch einen dunklen Fluch an sich, er kontrolliert jede ihrer Bewegungen. Die einzigen Momente, in denen Emberlyn das Tanzen noch genießen kann, sind, wenn sie in den Armen ihres Tanzpartners liegt, einer schattenhaften Gestalt, die nur für wenige Minuten auf der Bühne Form annimmt.

In the legendary ballet theatre of New Kora, the girls onstage enchant the audience each night with their grace and divine beauty. Before Emberlyn was the star of the show, it was her dream to become one of them . . . until she learned the price of their living nightmare. A magical curse binds the girls to the show's mastermind, Malcolm, whose invisible strings wield their limbs as if they are marionettes . . . and the commands don’t stop when the curtain comes down. Each dancer is destined to turn to dust once the curse consumes her.

There’s so much conflicting diet advice that you’re probably lost. Too much protein will ruin your kidneys. Eat a serving of protein at every meal. Eat five times a day. Fast for 16 hours. Drink vinegar, and eat nothing but cabbage. In this chaos, it’s easy to lose sight of the health benefits of different dietary approaches and the ethical values that a diet can embody. Fortunately, there are diets that have been around for decades and have scientific evidence to prove their effectiveness.
