From the publisher

When Zhen Yu strays from her father and gets lost at the market while looking at jade, her father meets a fortune-teller in tattered robes. “You will find your daughter where green stones glitter like a serpent’s skin,” says the fortune-teller, “but I must warn you about another snake . . .” Based on the Talmudic tale of Rabbi Akiva’s daughter and a snake.
