A Novel Disguise

The rich historical backdrop adds so much depth, but I'm curious whether the setting was based on real events or entirely fictional. How did it shape the characters' journeys?

The way they navigate deception and self-perception made me reflect on how much of ourselves is constructed versus innate. Did this aspect resonate with others?

The shifting viewpoints kept me guessing, but I wonder if that was planned from the start or if it evolved during writing. It definitely added layers to the suspense.
