For Nostradamus, the future is forever in motion. But for his young apprentice, Alfeo Zeno, the present is a bore-until a friend of the prince dies after Nostradamus casts him an ominous horoscope. Some say the mystic poisoned the victim to enhance his own reputation-and Nostradamus charges Alfeo with clearing his name. Now Alfeo must unravel a web of magic and murder if he is to have a future of his own.
