For all her life, Ember Matthews never feared the unknown, only a life that never changed. So when a stranger opens a door to Auchterton, a hidden realm ruled by ancient Houses and older grudges, she chooses to step through. But choice has consequences. Auchterton is a realm fractured by ambition: power is a weapon, Loyalty is a currency, and silence hides more than it protects. Magic lives in blood and bone, cities rise on the backs of old secrets, and a rebellion long thought dead is beginning to stir. Some fight to break the old order. Others will kill to preserve it. And between them all lies a secret worth igniting war. Drawn into the quiet violence of this realm, Ember must learn quickly who deserves her trust before it becomes a blade turned toward her. Because in Auchterton, secrets don't stay buried-and Ember is no longer invisible. For far beyond the horizon, a man cloaked in black has already begun hunting her name. Some embers are meant to die. Others are meant to burn. Highest Ranking: #6 in Fantasy
