Combining history, the occult, human greed, and a touch of feminism, this is a fine addition to the gothic genre. --ALA\'s Booklist on The Last Heir to Blackwood Library In the midst of the Napoleonic Wars and the rise of the floriography craze in Europe, two sisters separated at birth are bound together by a secret language of flowers passed down to them by the mother they never knew. When Cornelia leaves her cruel uncle\'s home to join Napoleon\'s army as a traveling naturalist, her ability to heal any wound and bring soldiers back from the brink of death earns her praise--and exposes her to those who would exploit her powers for themselves. Meanwhile, Lijsbeth lives in indentured servitude, her only respite her time spent flower arranging.

Then, as Napoleon\'s army descends on Waterloo, the flowers sing to her of a startling revelation: a girl who bears a striking resemblance to Cornelia. A girl she almost remembers--her sister, lost long ago, who seems to share the same gifts. Determined to reunite with Lijsbeth despite being on opposite sides of the war, Cornelia is drawn into a whirlwind of betrayal, secrets, and lies. Brought together by fate and magic at the peak of the war, the sisters try to uncove
