In the summer of 1967, Estella is creating costumes for herself, Jasper and Horace to steal to survive, but she wants so much more. On a chance encounter she meets a wealthy brother and sister who take her into their fold because of her clothes she designed and flair. As Estella sees how they live she wants to join a normal society where she can design clothes and fit in with the wealthy. However, her Cruella side comes into play and things go south in a hurry.
This is NOT a retell of the newest Disney movie, which I was worried it would be. It is another part of her life and story. Johnson did a good job of adding more depth and character to a familiar villain and how she got that way. Fun, fast read for anyone wanting more of Cruella's history.
