With new apprentice Pepper Kelly by her side, Zorzi heads to Paris to find her next target. But the city is rife with spies and the countess has many enemies. When Pepper is kidnapped by an old foe with a grudge, Zorzi’s plans are thrown into chaos. Now she must rescue her apprentice, recover the ancient tome Cultes des Goules, and prevent her former flame (and newfound nemesis) from summoning a ghoulish horror from the depths. Growing a conscience has never caused so many problems...
