The Teller of Small Fortunes

SMALL FORTUNES. BIG FEELINGS.
A cozy fantasy about trying to find yourself - and finding a family instead. Perfect for fans of Legends and Lattes, A Psalm for the Wild-Built and The House in the Cerulean Sea.
Fleeing a troubled past, immigrant fortune-teller Tao roams the dusty outskirts of Eshtera, telling only small fortunes, for small prices. Big fortunes come with big consequences . . . which she wants to avoid at all costs.
It's a lonely life until she encounters Mash and Silt, ex-mercenary and semi-reformed thief, who enlist her in the search for Mash's lost daughter. And when they are joined by Kina, a brilliant baker with a knead for adventure, and Fidelitus, a cat with a boundless appetite for fish, Tao begins to feel at home on the road.
As they journey together, confronting small-minded villagers and philosophizing trolls alike, Tao's unlikely new friends break down her walls and unravel her secrets. Ultimately, Tao must decide what's more important: her hard-won freedom, or reuniting a family not her own . . .
