Instead she lives in an impoverished village in southern China, practicing an illegal form of alchemy to keep food on the table: resurrecting the dead, for a price. Given a chance to complete her imperial exams, she is followed to the capital by her reputation for raising the dead. The Crown Prince himself seeks out her help, suspecting a coming assassination attempt. Caught in the dangerous political games of the royal family, it's only a matter of time before the secrets of her past catch up with her. -- adapted from jacket 521 1 Ages 14 and up 521 2 Grades 9 and up 650 0 Alchemy |vJuvenile fiction. |=^A25910 650 0 Royal houses |vJuvenile fiction. |=^A471859 650 0 Racially mixed people |vJuvenile fiction. |=^A313405 650 0 Resurrection |vJuvenile fiction. |=^A55627 651 0 China |vJuvenile fiction. |=^A15778 650 7 Alchemy |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00804245 650 7 Racially mixed people |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01086595 650 7 Resurrection |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01096044 650 7 Royal houses |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01100834 651 7 China |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01206073 |?UNAUTHORIZED 655 7 Fantasy fiction |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01726607 655 7 Fiction |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 Juvenile works |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411637 655 7 Novels |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 Young adult works |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01726790 655 7 Young adult fiction. |2gsafd 655 7 Fantasy fiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Alternative histories (Fiction) |2lcgft 655 7 Novels. |2lcgft 938 Children's Plus, Inc. |bCHIL |n2349552 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n20627873 938 Brodart |bBROD |n133812146 949 F B17475S01 |wDEWEY |hJOYNER13 |ojcas 994 C0 |bERE 596 1 998 6291280
