When Kim Blackwell finds an old painting hidden in her grandfather's basement, she never expects it to speak - or to whisper her name.
The voice belongs to Vespera, a woman from another century, trapped between life and art by a forgotten spell. Drawn into Vespera's secrets, Kim uncovers the story of Petralune, a dark elixir said to move souls between bodies - and destroy them in the process.
As magic, memory, and guilt intertwine, Kim must face what's real, what's illusion, and what it means to love something you can't ever truly hold.
