Chocolat meets The Song of Achilles-a spellbinding tale of bread, memory, and the keepers of a forgotten fire. She carries the secret of bread-and the power to remember what the world forgot. For years, Epi Gerroux has lived in silence on the bread terrace of Ceres, a remote village in southwest France. Known only as the Guild's most gifted baker-and whispered to have murdered his own mother-Epi shapes bread crowns that honor the very institution that betrayed him. But Epi is not who he appears to be. When a hidden box reveals the forbidden seeds of Psomi-an ancient agrarian cult said to possess the knowledge of wild grains, mystical rites, and the power to remember through food-Epi is arrested for sedition, and the past begins to unspool. To survive, Epi must confront a deeper truth: he is not a boy, but a girl named Eleone, once abandoned by her mother, Antaia-the vanished leader of Psomi. Guided by the whispers of the Mistresses, Eleone embarks on a journey through memory, myth, and fire to reclaim the legacy she was born into-and decide what kind of future she will rise to create. Blending historical intrigue, magical realism, and culinary mythology, Tales of the Mistress invites readers into a hidden world where bread carries memory, kitchens echo with ghosts, and love burns brighter than the oven's flame. This first novel in the Elysian Legacy series is both an origin story and a resurrection-a testament to the women who keep the fire alive.
