Callista has always felt the sea calling her east. Raised in a sleepy Greek coastal town, she leaves at nineteen with nothing but sharp eyes, a quick tongue, and a strange gift: she can read people and objects with uncanny accuracy—as if the world whispers its secrets to her.
On the road she discovers she's a natural merchant. Her perceptiveness lets her spot fakes, read lies in haggling, and sense which caravans are trustworthy. She starts small—spices, silks, information—and quickly becomes known as the Greek girl who never loses a bargain.
But as she travels farther east, dark rumors reach her: a brutal war is brewing at the far end of the Silk Road. Refugees flood westward. Most traders turn back. Callista, driven by growing ambition, makes the dangerous choice to push forward into the chaos.
By the time she reaches the war zone, she has become wealthy, influential… and deeply entangled. One of the warring factions recognizes her unique talents and makes her an unlikely advisor. Now Callista must use every skill she's learned on the road to broker peace before the entire Silk Road burns—but her ambition has a cost, and the closer she gets to power, the more she questions whether she's trying to stop the war… or simply win it for herself.
The Silk Road Oracle traces a lifetime journey from Corinth to the far east across the fragmented Pax Mongolica of the early fourteenth century.
