Publisher's summary
Sometimes the greatest spectacle hides the darkest secrets…
In an alternate London, the city's Theatre District is a walled area south of the river where an immersive production—the Show—has been running for centuries, growing ever bigger, more sprawling and lavish. The Show is open to anyone who can afford a ticket but the District itself is a closed world; even the police have no jurisdiction within its walls.
Juliet's mother died when she was a baby. Brought up by her emotionally distant father and even more distant stepmother, she has never felt wanted. It's only when her father passes away that Juliet, now nineteen, learns her birth was registered in the District. Desperate to belong somewhere at last, she travels to London where she hopes to unearth the truth about her identity, her mother's death and her father's years of silence—and claim her birthright.
But in the District, there is only one central truth: the Show must go on. And in a world where illusions abound, and powerful men control the narrative, Juliet has no idea of just how far some will go to ensure certain stories are never told…
For fans of The Miniaturist and The Doll Factory, The Theatre of Glass and Shadows is a place where nothing is as it seems.

Story
Ganga, joyful goddess of the river, serves as caretaker to the mischievous godlings who roam her banks. But when their antics incur the wrath of a powerful sage, Ganga is cursed to become mortal, bound to her human form until she fulfills the obligations of the curse. Though she knows nothing of mortal life, Ganga weds King Shantanu and becomes a queen, determined to regain her freedom no matter the cost. But in a cruel turn of fate, just as she is freed of her binding, she is forced to leave her infant son behind. Her son, prince Devavrata, unwittingly carries the legacy of Ganga’s curse.

Story
Maxan, a young fox, serves his city as a spy, scout, and informant. He is meant to only observe, but defies his orders to stop an unspeakable evil. He is now tied to a weapon of immeasurable power, capable of driving every animal into a violent frenzy. Desperate for answers, Maxan is drawn into an eternal war between The Monitors and The Mind, both vying for control of the powerful artifacts hidden deep below and far above their world. While The Minders want only to keep the artifacts safe and dormant, the cult of The Mind wants to use them to take over the world.

Kept me listening to the end
Well read. The story twists and winds leaving me wondering to the end which part of the plot will unravel to be the truth. Enjoyable listen.
