When her father sets an illegitimate successor on the throne on her stead, Lillemor's raging fury leads her to unravel what she's capable of. Forsaken, she sets off to use her newfound powers to end the witch trials, seize her crown, and, as impossible as it sounded, to cease the insidious wars. But when she meets one of her coven sisters and the darkest sorcerer of all time, Saturna, Lillemor begins to question who the real enemy really is . . . The neighbor nation or the malevolent woman she's slowly falling in love with? Salem means Peace. That's what her father taught her. Now Lillemor is torn between keeping it safe and watching Salem become everything it isn't, or revealing her powers to save the kingdom and get burned at the stake.

But when a persistent Matthew Hargrove--seeking to impress a girl in their class--offers him a sum he can't turn down, he is forced to reckon with the weight of his trauma. Will their one-on-one guitar lessons help them learn something deeper than the space between each musical note? Can Matthew strum the chord that Lee's heart has silenced? Or will every string he plucks push them farther from each other?

Dot Alby was just a face in the crowd. A quiet woman with plain clothes, a factory job, and no record. Until the day she was arrested for a string of killings so calculated, so untraceable, that experts still don't know how she did it. But the real horror begins after her capture. As Dot sits silently in a cell, the murders continue-impossible, identical, and signed with her name. A doctrine begins to spread. Clean. Poetic. Unstoppable. It calls itself The Correction. Victims range from the powerful to the cruel to the seemingly ordinary. There's no pattern, no demands. Only one chilling promise: "You were never waiting for change. You were waiting for permission." As society begins to fracture under the weight of its own secrets, those who once sought justice are forced to confront a question more terrifying than guilt: What if she's right?
