A shrewd, young priestess-in-training is set a murder to solve in this new mystery manga from the creator of The Apothecary Diaries! By day, Chloe lives at a convent. By night, she's such a card shark, a holy knight ends up believing she has a rare, magical gift. What he doesn't know is, she just has sharp eyes and a quick wit--which she'll need when she's uprooted and dropped in the middle of a round of deadly palace intrigue!
Factional differences, the nature of charisms—Chloe has had a lot to learn in the course of her investigation. While her pastoral visit with Salomé to the orphanage seems to go well enough at first, an accusation from some stern paladins puts a wrench in her progress. Luckily, her astute powers of observation may just show her a way out—and reveal a clue or two in the process…
