This book continues the story of Remus, the winged child born from an egg. His mother is a doctor, in a world that has forgotten about science. Since she cannot use magic, nobody takes her medicine seriously. To get by, she often resorts to trickery. She wears a crow mask to intimidate her patients. She cloaks her medicine with an air of mystique, to sell them as magic tonics. She also isn't shy about committing murder or theft to assure the wellbeing of her son. Follow Ametrine as she does whatever it takes to provide for her child, whether it be good or ill.
