From the Back Cover
Tilo, an immigrant from India, runs a spice shop in Oakland, California. While she supplies the ingredients for curries and kormas, she also helps her customers to gain a more precious commodity: whatever they most desire. For Tilo is a Mistress of Spices, a priestess of the secret magical powers of spices.

Through those who visit and revisit her shop, she catches glimpses of the life of the local Indian expatriate community. To each, Tilo dispenses wisdom and the appropriate spice, for the restoration of sight, the cleansing of evil, the pain of rejection. But when a lonely American ventures into the store, a troubled Tilo cannot find the correct spice, for he arouses in her a forbidden desire - which if she follows will destroy her magical powers...

This book is starting its travels as part of Caffcaff's bookbox. Enjoy!!

Bad bad bookcrosser. I must have had this book for at least a year and I haven't journalled it, I picked this up from a reading meet.

I haven't found the time to read it and don't think I will in the next year and as I need to reduce my books it is time for this book to move on.
