title: Pearl of Wisdom
author: Wallace, Jody
description: Blackmailed by the only man who can heal her—what's a Pearl to do? Pearl Courtier is a nobody. A human from Tarakona who just happens to have a famous wizard brother. When a lab accident transforms her into a walking lie detector, Pearl travels across worlds to seek help from a wizard on another planet. But the price for stiff-necked enchanter Everett DeBoer to remove her curse is high. Pose as his companion during a business conference, and use her unique skill to tell him which of his colleagues are lying. What will Pearl do when she discovers how he's been lying to himself—and how deadly that might be for both of them?
