It is this remarkable talent—or curse—that carries her far from the fetid kitchen into an apprenticeship with a revered herbalist and ultimately to the highest circles of the Ducal court.

And an innocent girl finds the heightened sense that has been her fortune is now drawing her down into a maelstrom of evil.
