Her ability to see the future may prevent her from living in the present…

For a handful of gold, Madame de Morville will read your future in a glass of swirling water. You’ll believe her, because you know she’s more than 150 years old and a witch, and she has all of Paris in the palm of her hand. But Madame de Morville hides more behind her black robes than you know. Her real age, the mother and uncle who left her for dead, the inner workings of the most secret society of Parisian witches: none of these truths would help her outwit the rich who so desperately want the promise of the future. After all, it’s her own future she must control, no matter how much it is painted with uncertainty and clouded by vengeance.
