Soft-spoken and self-contained, she finds solace in solitude, her small apartment a sanctuary from a world that once betrayed her. Haunted by a past she never speaks of, Lenora clings to routine like a lifeline-until the day she's offered a coveted position at the city's most powerful and enigmatic corporation.
