To understand her past, Emmeline must unlock the clues to her identity, a quest that challenges the limits of her heart and imagination.
As Emmeline grows, however, so too does her curiosity, until one day the unforeseen happens, and Emmeline is vaulted out into the real world--a place of love, betrayal, ambition, and revenge.
What he won\'t explain are the mysterious scents stored in the drawers that line the walls of their cabin, or the origin of the machine that creates them.
Emmeline lives an enchanted childhood on a remote island with her father, who teaches her about the natural world through her senses.
