house of shadows- the sold girl
8 parts Ongoing In a world carved up by the Five Houses, power is bought with blood, secrets, and fear. The rich live behind guarded walls, while the poor scrape by on rations and whispers of freedom that no longer exists.
Isaree Suwannarat-Jameson thought her grandmother's death was the greatest loss she would ever endure. But the funeral brings more than grief-it brings warnings. Strangers whisper of danger, shadows watch from the corners, and her uncle scrambles to hide her away before the Houses can find her.
They say once the Houses take you, you're never seen again. Some call them rulers. Others call them mafias. All agree on one thing: they own everything... and everyone.
As Isaree begins to unravel the truth about her family's hidden debts, she realizes her life was bargained away long before she was old enough to understand. Now, hunted and betrayed, she must decide whether to run, obey, or fight back against the empire that has already marked her as theirs.
But in a city built on lies and silence, trust is more dangerous than chains.
And freedom? Freedom might just cost her everything.
