When Artemisia arrives in Florence seeking a haven for her art, the powerful Accademia, self-proclaimed guardians of the healing and necrotic magic that protect the city from plague and curses, refuse her. Alone and fighting for her art, Artemisia makes allies such as Galileo and Michelangelo the Younger, as well as the wealthy and powerful Cristina de' Medici. When scandal erupts, Artemisia must choose between revenge and her dream of creating a legacy that will span the generations.
