Description

The war is over.

The Resistance has fallen. The world Helena Marino once fought to protect has been consumed by necromancy, corruption, and death.

Once a gifted alchemist, Helena is now a prisoner—stripped of her freedom, her magic suppressed, and her memories shattered. The months leading up to her capture are gone, leaving behind only fragments of a past everyone around her seems desperate to uncover.

Because Helena may be hiding something far more dangerous than anyone realizes.

In the aftermath of the war, Paladia is ruled by powerful guild families and ruthless necromancers whose undead armies helped secure their victory. Believing Helena’s missing memories may contain the final secret of the Resistance, they send her to the terrifying High Reeve—one of the most feared necromancers in the realm.

Cold, intelligent, and dangerously powerful, the High Reeve becomes both Helena’s captor and the key to unlocking the truth hidden inside her mind.

Trapped within his decaying estate filled with dark magic and dangerous secrets, Helena must navigate a world where nothing is what it seems.

Because the deeper she digs into her missing past, the more horrifying the truth becomes.

And some memories were buried for a reason.
