Fleeing a troubled past, an immigrant fortune teller bands together with an ex-mercenary, a semi-formed thief and a baker with a knead for adventure in this cozy fantasy about trying to find yourself - and finding a family instead.

"Tao is an immigrant fortune teller, traveling between villages with just her trusty mule for company. She only tells 'small' fortunes: whether it will hail next week; which boy the barmaid will kiss; when the cow will calve. She knows from bitter experience that big fortunes come with big consequences. Even if it's a lonely life, it's better than the one she left behind. But a small fortune unexpectedly becomes something more when a (semi) reformed thief and an ex-mercenary recruit her into their desperate search for a lost child. Soon, they're joined by a baker with a 'knead' for adventure, and--of course--a slightly magical cat"--
