Resumen del Editor

"A stunning portrait of a woman blossoming into her full power…this is Alka Joshi's best book yet!”—Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Diamond Eye

From the author of Reese's Book Club Pick The Henna Artist, the final chapter in Alka Joshi’s New York Times bestselling Jaipur trilogy takes listeners to 1970s Paris, where Radha’s budding career as a perfumer must compete with the demands of her family and the secrets of her past.

Paris, 1974. Radha is now living in Paris with her husband, Pierre, and their two daughters. She still grieves for the baby boy she gave up years ago, when she was only a child herself, but she loves being a mother to her daughters, and she’s finally found her passion—the treasure trove of scents.

She has an exciting and challenging position working for a master perfumer, helping to design completely new fragrances for clients and building her career one scent at a time. She only wishes Pierre could understand her need to work. She feels his frustration, but she can’t give up this thing that drives her.

Tasked with her first major project, Radha travels to India, where she enlists the help of her sister, Lakshmi, and the courtesans of Agra—women who use the power of fragrance to seduce, tease and entice. She’s on the cusp of a breakthrough when she finds out the son she never told her husband about is heading to Paris to find her—upending her carefully managed world and threatening to destroy a vulnerable marriage.

Love love love!

Honestly a good way to end the series, it was interesting to see/understand Radha’s POV from the first book and her character development was quite touching.
Thank you Joshi for this beautiful story, this family is one I won’t be forgetting anytime soon,

Great book

I loved listening to this book! Like the first two books in the series, this one is vivid and immediately engaging and so fun to listen to. And I was so excited to see that Sneha Mathan was narrating again - I could listen to her read all day long!

The perfect ending to a trilogy

I couldn’t have loved it more. The characters were brought to life by the author. The story line flowed beautifully. The narrator read the book w an easy flow.

Fascinating and compelling series!

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this series of 3 books. I think it should be listened to rather than read. It was helpful to hear the words that reflect the culture, food and country pronounced correctly. It’s not often that we in US get to hear the words and that would have been lacking if I’d tried to read the book. Great read. Loved the resolution! Wish there were more.

Need Book 4!

I loved all three of her books. And the narrator is the very best and my favorite.
Hurry up and write the next book please!!

Just as good as the others in the series.

Loved it! Just as good as the previous two stories. Great narrator. Great story. Didn’t want it to end.

The trilogy just keeps getting better

I am so committed to these characters, and love the different perspectives in these books. The audio enhances the experience for all 3!

Gripping story Beautifully read and written

I loved this trilogy.
Although I never understood why she couldn’t tell her husband her deepest secret.
Even though emotion is intensely and beautifully described - you don’t get the feeling of emotion and despair or passion from the narrator. Despite enjoying the story and the lovely voice of the narrator - there was a level of disconnect - perhaps to allow the listener to come up with their own feelings as if they were reading the book themselves. Despite loving this author - sex scenes and moment of despair are written in a very matter of fact way. Other than that I loved her analogues and similes and descriptions

Great trilogy

This trilogy was well written. I loved the characters and learned a bit about the Indian culture and history.

Loved every minute

I have throughly enjoyed this whole series and this last book did not disappoint me!
