About The Book
Marina has three days to find what her father has spent thirty years missing. Armed with architectural precision, and a carefully researched list, she believes Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter will yield the last bottle of Memoria, a legendary cologne that vanished with its reclusive creator. But what happens when her methodical plans meet a city that refuses to be mapped?
Time is running out in more ways than one. While Marina should be preparing for the architectural review that will cap her summer graduate program, she finds herself drawn deeper into the Gothic Quarter’s maze of ancient stones, hidden courtyards, and forgotten passages that hold secrets connecting a vanished perfumer to her father’s past in ways she never imagined. As the scents of gardenia and bergamot lead her through Barcelona’s sensory labyrinth, Marina begins to question whether she’s searching for the right thing at all.
With each passing day, the line between preservation and creation blurs. What started as a quest to surprise her father becomes something far more profound, a journey that will transform not only how Marina sees Barcelona’s timeless conversation between past and present, but how she understands her own relationship to legacy, craft, and discovery.
In a city where every stone holds memory and every scent carries stories, Marina is about to learn that the most important searches are the ones you never planned to make.
