The Winter Phoenix

When the White Sun rises, blood turns to glass and empires stumble.
Dragged across a frozen hunting ground by a prince who wants her soul, Leng Jinghong-disgraced general, reincarnated ghost-cuts the leash, walks into the emperor's hall, and bets her head she can retake the impregnable northern pass in thirty days.
In a court of silk daggers and snow-bound steppes, the only thing sharper than her spear is her memory of dying here once before.
She intends not to die again.
