From the back cover

Three years into a marriage he once fought for, a nobleman finds his life suffocatingly dull. When his younger brother Leo brings word that His Majesty needs an envoy in the flood-ravaged southern province of Veridia, he sees his escape. Yet his wife Eleanor, daughter of a Marquis, would surely insist on following him.

Leo offers to stay behind and look after everything, including Eleanor. When she appears with her honey-lotus pudding, he passes the bowl to Leo, and her serene face cracks with shock. Later, she asks who ate the pudding, and he lies that he did. She accepts his wish to go to Veridia without protest, leaving him oddly hollow.

Then he notices a second, unused bowl on the windowsill, identical to the first, and her cryptic answer unsettles him more than he will admit.
