520 "In a shabby house, on a shabby street, in the new capital
of Madrid, Luzia Cotado uses scraps of magic to get
through her days of endless toil as a scullion. But when
her scheming mistress discovers the lump of a servant
cowering in the kitchen is actually hiding a talent for
little miracles, she demands Luzia use those gifts to
better the family's social position. What begins as simple
amusement for the bored nobility takes a perilous turn
when Luzia garners the notice of Antonio Pérez, the
disgraced secretary to Spain's king. Still reeling from
the defeat of his armada, the king is desperate for any
advantage in the war against England's heretic queen--and
Pérez will stop at nothing to regain the king's favor.
Determined to seize this one chance to better her fortunes,
Luzia plunges into a world of seers and alchemists, holy
men and hucksters, where the lines between magic, science,
and fraud are never certain. But as her notoriety grows,
so does the danger that her Jewish blood will doom her to
the Inquisition's wrath. She will have to use every bit of
her wit and will to survive--even if that means enlisting
the help of Guillén Santangel, an embittered immortal
familiar whose own secrets could prove deadly for them
both"--|cProvided by publisher.
