NEW YORK - A third passion-driven homicide. -- A MYSTERY LIKE NO OTHER-- "HAD NOT FINISHED A BOOK IN MORE THAN 10 YEARS, yet I couldn't put APHRODESIA down until I was done." -- "Terrific! Unlike any other I've read."

Eric Foster, a student at the top perfume academy in France, recreates a long-lost fragrance said to have been used by the Queen of Sheba to lure a reluctant King Solomon to her bed. This aphrodisiac-like perfume, Balquees, contains a rare ingredient, but using it gets Eric expelled.

Eric rebuilds his life in New York as a forensics consultant to the NYPD. He is a gentle soul who rescued a 3-legged bloodhound. But when a Balquees-like scent is the only common thread among several homicides, Eric becomes the prime suspect. Racing to clear his name, Eric enlists help from forensics expert, Tanya.

Together they venture to Yemen - into the dark underbelly of the world of scent.

"A MOST UNUSUAL BOOK - A DELICIOUS STORY... I couldn't wait to get back to it each night. Very much liked the insights into the world of fragrance. I know that scent is primal and influences much of how we react to people and what we remember through the years. And the sex is sexy and the author pulled if off quite well without overdoing it." -- Amazon reader

" GET IT." -- Kirkus Reviews
