Through his intricate art of creating bespoke scents that evoke profound and immersive memories, he has amassed a loyal client base willing to pay top dollar for his creations. However, as the city's economy continues to evolve, even the practice of artisanal murder fails to sustain Vic's lavish lifestyle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne day, Vic receives an offer that seems too good to pass up. Former client Joseph Eisner, known for his deep pockets and lavish tastes, approaches Vic with a proposition to expand his enterprise. The opportunity to create scents for a wider audience, coupled with the promise of substantial financial rewards, is irresistible to Vic. However, he soon realizes that the job is far more intricate and dangerous than he had anticipated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo accomplish Eisner's commission, Vic must manipulate fellow struggling artists into acting as his accomplices. Like Vic, they are on the verge of burnout and bankruptcy, and the prospect of a fresh start and a chance to make a name for themselves is too alluring to resist. As Vic's plans unfold, he becomes increasingly aware of the complexity of his situation. The lines between friendship, love, and conspiracy become blurred, and Vic finds himself questioning the morality of his actions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs he delves deeper into the project, Vic is relentlessly pursued by a tenacious private investigator who has suspicions about Vic's involvement. The investigator's persistence grows, and Vic becomes increasingly desperate to complete Eisner's commission. He is willing to sacrifice anything and anyone to achieve his goal, including his friends, lovers, and even his own conscience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the end, Vic must confront the consequences of his actions and decide whether the price of art is worth the cost of his soul. The story explores the blurred lines between creativity, ambition, and morality, and asks the question: how far would you go to achieve your dreams?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 406g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 138 x 210 x 31 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781542030700\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lara Elena Donnelly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094632853754,"sku":"9781542030700","price":5.81,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646126766715_book.jpg?v=1646831753","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/base-notes-9781542030700","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
