Description:
"A heady mixture of Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty and aromatherapy in this new magical adventure" from the Science Fiction Grand Master (Publishers Weekly).
An orphaned child and captive scullery maid, young Willadene possesses an uncanny ability to sense and understand the magical odors that pervade her world. 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. But there is depravity lurking within the castle's walls, inspiring brazen treacheries and usurpations--and foul abduction as unthinkable as it is unexpected. And an innocent girl finds the heightened sense that has been her fortune is now drawing her down into a maelstrom of evil.
Brief description: Katelyn Levering is an audiobook narrator who loves to perform in local community-theatre productions. An avid animal and nature lover, she enjoys gardening and crafting and is a proud cat mom to six furry little monsters. She works as a hairdresser in Toledo, Ohio.
