In this gripping dark fantasy debut, a woman stripped of her memories must navigate a shattered world of necromancy and alchemy—while the man charged with uncovering her past may be the greatest threat to her future. This stunning hardcover edition features a deluxe dust jacket with gold foil detailing, a full-color reverse illustration, beautifully designed endpapers, a gold foil case stamp, and an interior black-and-white illustration by acclaimed artist Avendell. “What is it you think you’re protecting in that brain of yours? The war is over. Holdfast is dead. The Eternal Flame extinguished. There’s no one left for you to save.” Once a gifted alchemist, Helena Marino is now a prisoner—of war and of her own fractured mind. Her fellow Resistance fighters are gone, her magic suppressed, and the world she fought for lies in ruins. In the wake of the conflict, Paladia has fallen under the rule of corrupt guild dynasties and ruthless necromancers whose undead armies secured their dominance. Helena, recorded as nothing more than an insignificant healer, should hold little value… yet the months before her capture are lost to her, and her captors suspect those missing memories conceal something vital. To excavate the truth, Helena is delivered to the High Reeve—one of the most powerful and merciless necromancers in the realm. Imprisoned within his decaying estate, she must battle to protect the remnants of who she was. But the Reeve—and the house itself—harbor secrets as dark as her own. And unearthing them may cost Helena everything.
