Employing a more dangerous and darker magic, Camille creates a double identity for herself – Baroness Cécile Déscharlots, an aristocrat with access to the gambling tables at Versailles. Yet as Camille spends more and more time with the aristocrats at the tables, she struggles to maintain the resentment she once felt for the rich.
