A woman' s secret. A deadly Plague. Unleash the hidden magic… 1348. As the Black Plague
ravages Italy Ginevra di Gasparo is summoned to Florence after nearly a decade of lonely
exile. Ginevra has a gift—harnessing the hidden powers of gemstones she can heal the sick. But
when word spread of her unusual abilities she was condemned as a witch and banished. Now the
same men who expelled Ginevra are begging for her return. Ginevra obliges assuming the city’s

in a much larger scheme than the one she’s been hired to solve. And the dangerous men behind
this conspiracy won’t think twice about killing a stone witch to get what they want…
