Book Two of the Crimson Requiem Cycle Once, she sang to survive. Now, they sing in her name - and they don't care if she ever sings again. Seraphine Vale never claimed to be a savior. But after silencing the wound that once ruled her blood, the world chose to crown her anyway - not with gold, but with worship. Pilgrims dream of her. Choirs twist her name into new hymns. And the Keep she once called home begins to reshape itself around her legend. Only... it isn't her. Not really. A new cult rises, calling her Saint Vale. A false gospel spreads. And in the deepest corridors of Blackthorne Keep, a girl long dead begins to stir in thread and memory - the bride they never let go. Seraphine is not afraid to be hated. She is terrified of being believed. And as the crown reshapes itself from song and shadow, she must decide: will she unwrite the myth before it consumes her - or let the world bury her beneath the version it prefers?
