On her twenty-fourth birthday, Tila Kurzweil receives a strange package communicating an even more mysterious message. She discovers she's inherited an antique book store in Prague that's been in her family for more than two hundred years. But an accompanying letter tells her that it's time she follows her name and fulfills her gilgul. Confused, Tila seeks answers from her father. Professor Kurzweil really doesn't want to talk about the past and what the message might mean to his daughter, but he does reveal that Tila's mother, now dead, practiced some Kabbalistic rituals. Tila knows she must discover who she is and where she came from. She leaves Toronto and travels to Prague where she embarks on an adventure into a world of intrigue, incest, and reincarnation-a tale whose origins lead back to eighteenth-century Europe, a dark period in Jewish Kabbalah. This world that caused her mother's death now poses a threat to Tila's own life.
