Eric Foster, a student at the world's top perfume school, creates a scent that is an aphrodisiac of astonishing potency, the holy grail of the perfumer's art. His future seems assured. But when his creation is tied to an outbreak of passion-driven homicides, Eric - a gentle soul who rescued a 3-legged bloodhound - becomes the NYPD's prime suspect, facing a charge of serial murder.

With growing panic, Eric enlists help from forensic chemist, Tanya, and together they venture to Yemen and France, into the realms of organized crime, third world interrogation, and the dark underbelly of the fragrance industry.

Against increasingly violent adversaries, Eric's only advantage is his extraordinary sense of smell and that of his adopted bloodhound, Daisy.

Readers are intrigued with the psychology of scent, the forensics, the hidden world of fragrances, and the heart-stopping tension in Aphrodesia.

"AN EROTIC ROLLER COASTER. ... the writing is beautiful --haunting."

"FASCINATING. Not my usual fair but captured me and didn't let go until the end. Great mystery."

"WELL-WRITTEN PAGE-TURNER that is anchored in beautifully described and evocative settings."

"MORE THAN YOU THINK. More than you could ever know. In the beginning, there is a very explicit sex scene. So I gave up on it. Six months later I came back to see if there was anything else. Wow, am I glad I did. No more sex but a fantastic plot with twists and turns you could not have foreseen seen. This is a major page turner. Very creative and very well written, right to the end. I loved it."
