British author Susan Stokes-Chapman's debut novel is the perfect blend of Georgian England and Greek mythology. An international bestseller, with publishing rights bought out in 15 countries. London, 1799. Dora Blake, an aspiring jewelry artist, lives with her handmade magpie in an antiquities shop. The place is now owned by her uncle and is in decline, but in the old days Dora's parents' store was very famous for its wide range of authentic works of art. The appearance of the pythos - a mysterious ancient Greek vase - and the secrets it hides change the girl's life: she sees a chance to return the store and get rid of her uncle's oppression. However, there are too many interested in the pythos: someone can use it to pave the way to an academic future, another to indulge his ego, and another to satisfy his thirst for money. What secrets the ancient find hides and what key can unlock them?
