Caspian Outpost

Mira Sinclair has spent her whole life braced in doorways, reading a room before she steps into it, certain that any moment now someone will count the bodies and find hers added by mistake.
Then she comes to Mizan - a seminary on the inside of a turning world, where four faiths keep four flames in one yard, every door stands open, and a quiet man has cut two words above the gate: dare to know. For the first time the old fear goes still. She is warm. She is wanted. Nothing here is a lie.
That is what makes it work.
Years later, on a small wheel sealed off at the cold edge of the belt, the warmth has a Bride at its center and a Voice that speaks from behind a locked door - and the gentlest hands on the station are the ones closing the wound while it's still open. Mira will do a terrible thing, because obedience is the only mother tongue she was ever taught.
A novel about how good people, agreeing every day to know nothing, build the road a monster only has to walk them down.
