What begins as a biography project about a disgraced Egyptologist quickly spirals into something far stranger: a sealed bottle marked with an ancient glyph, whispers of Empress Jos?phine Bonaparte's secret rituals, and a trail of memory-infused wine-possibly connected to the eccentric Masonic collector Daniel Iffla-that stretches from Amarna to Bordeaux. When her new assistant Rosalind Downing becomes mysteriously connected to the ritual itself, Francine finds herself racing to decode a legacy someone is killing to protect. As glyphs emerge, bottles are opened, and a long-buried Brotherhood awakens, Francine must face a terrifying question: what if remembering the past isn't enough, and the only way to survive is to contain it?
