Tidebound - Wriolette AU

TIDEBOUND
- In the depths of Fontaine, nothing stays buried forever.

When a series of escalating terror attacks shakes the city of light, two men find themselves drawn together by duty, mystery-and a little girl caught between their worlds.

Wriothesley, a hardened tactical officer, will do anything to protect his stepdaughter Sigewinne-even if it means facing the ghosts of a past he thought he'd buried. Neuvillette, a quiet elementary school teacher and part-time judge, believes justice can still be kind-but the tides of unrest are rising fast, and compassion is no longer enough.

Beneath Fontaine's shimmering surface, a forgotten people prepare to rise. Led by a woman whose grief has turned to fury, the Fleuve Cendre are no longer asking to be seen-they're demanding it, in fire and flood.

As Fontaine trembles under the weight of long-ignored injustice, Wriothesley and Neuvillette must decide what they're willing to lose to protect the ones they love-and whether the tides will bind them together, or pull them apart.

"You look down on us because we live beneath you. Let us rise - and drown the light in your eyes." - Initial O.
