Cyla Panin is an MG, YA and Adult Author who prefers to look at the world through a dusting of magic. Marie laces the perfume delicately-not with poison, but with a hint of honeysuckle she’s trained her sister to respond to. But her perfumes are more than sweet scents in cheap, cut-glass bottles: A certain few are laced with death. She wants to make enough to save a dowry for her sister, Ama, in hopes of Ama marrying well and Marie living at the level of freedom afforded only to spinster aunts. Seventeen-year-old Marie mixes perfumes to sell on market day in her small 18th-century French town. ![]() ![]() A gothic YA fantasy debut about a young woman striving to break her sister's curse and stop the killing in her small French town-now in paperback ![]()
