Some legacies are carved in ink. Others are etched into history-and fade into the shadows.
Born with the uncanny gift to see beyond the living, Isolde Valenne uncovered terrifying truths her village desperately wanted to keep hidden: wandering spirits, buried sins, and futures igniting in flames. When her visions turned her own people against her, she summoned ancient, forbidden forces-powerful beyond faith itself. The result? Her eyes were stolen, replaced by spectral butterflies that see everything the world tries to hide.
They burned her anyway.
Centuries later, that cursed legacy awakens within Lacy Valenne.
As Lacy mysteriously begins to lose her sight, haunting dreams of fire and whispers invade her waking hours. When the spectral butterflies return, she uncovers a shocking truth: blindness has opened her eyes to what others refuse to see-restless spirits, buried secrets, and a past intent on remaining hidden. Bound to Isolde's dark legacy, Lacy realizes the curse was never meant to fade-and perhaps, never will.
Someone has disturbed the past, reigniting the same terrifying fears that doomed Isolde. With secrets resurfacing and enemies closing in, Lacy must unravel the truth about her ancestor-and decide whether the curse will finally be broken or claim her forever.
This dark, haunting tale of inheritance, memory, and power asks: What happens when the past refuses to stay buried-and the truth demands a deadly sacrifice?
