Publisher's summary

A beguiling novel of revenge, deliverance, and a powerful sisterhood of magic by the Washington Post bestselling author of The Vine Witch and The Glamourist.

Sidra didn’t murder her husband. Yet even a jinni can’t wish away a wrongful imprisonment. Determined to prove her innocence, she returns to her adopted home - a French village renowned for its perfume witches - with her friends Elena and Yvette by her side. Here is where Sidra’s true destiny awaits, but danger also lurks in the village’s narrow lanes.

On her trail is Jamra, another jinni, who’s after more than revenge for the murder of his brother. He also seeks vengeance for the indignities inflicted on jinn by mortals over the centuries. When he learns of an ancient relic capable of unleashing chaos on the world, and that the weapon is in the hands of his murderous sister-in-law, he vows to destroy Sidra to get it.

Relying on a sisterhood of magic, a mysteriously faithful dog, and a second-rate sorcerer, Sidra defends herself using the village’s greatest asset: its perfume. It’s as beguiling a lure as it is a formidable shield. But is it enough for Sidra to protect herself and those she loves from powers yet to be released?

Critic reviews

“Jones' standard American accent contrasts with Assadourian’s light Middle Eastern cadence, which hints at the story's ancient mystery, and her tones, which allude to the underlying danger the sisterhood faces. The quest engages the imagination and the narrators increase suspense through wide-ranging emotional phrasings - from seeing the mystical Grand Pere in the forest to women’s whispered thoughts amid an incense burner’s gentle scent and cries of fear and enthusiasm as they call spells.” - Booklist

“Series readers and newcomers alike will be enthralled.” - Publishers Weekly

“Readers will enjoy catching up with the characters they already know. Smith (The Glamourist) does lovely work describing the luscious smells that Sidra works with.” - Library Journal

It's unfortunate the series is over.

I really like how all the stories continue from the preceding story while telling a new story. I love the narrating and beautiful descriptions of things in the story.

Wonderful trilogy!

I'll be looking for more from this author; each part was captivating (no pun intended!), and everything tied up so well. It's an unusual story, too, which is always a treat. Great job!

Wonderful witches tail.

Great series, listened to all in a week. Loved the trilogy and the intelligence and friendship our three herons built. The authors imagination and talent brought the story to life. I hope the author continues this series.

Sidra’s story

The jinni, Sidra has a date with fate. Her friends will be there to help her. Wonderful ending to these three stories. If I had one wish ;o), it would be for an epilogue showing the future happiness of these ladies.

Enjoyable

I listened to this as an audio and they brought in an additional narrator. I listened to this trilogy back to back and I was so impressed with the narrator of Books 1-2, that I did have some dissappointment when the voices of two of the main characters changed in the third book.

That being said, I did enjoy listening to the remaining book in the Trilogy. It's suspenseful and fun.

Great story!

I loved all the books in this series! The only thing I struggled with is the narrator swapping in this last book. I would have appreciated consistency until the end with the narrator, but the additional narrator definitely fit with the storyline of this book.
