SHE NEVER THOUGHT ANYTHING COULD BE A LIE. NOW, EVERYTHING IS.
Alyana lives with a hole where her memories should be since the day her world collapsed-found surrounded by blood, haunted by questions she cannot answer, and unable to remember what happened.
Five years later, a strange mark blooms across her skin. In a realm that has erased all traces of magic, her mark could expose secrets the Empire has buried for millennia.
When she's attacked and forced to flee on the eve of her sister's royal wedding, she joins a mysterious stranger bearing a mark like her own. He promises to help her find the truth, if she helps him hunt a creature said to hold the key to stopping the corrupt power spreading across the kingdoms.
Their path will lead them beyond the Empire's borders, across the sea to forbidden lands where the old magic still breathes, and where the lies of the Empire began.
But the truth she seeks could shatter more than kingdoms-it may destroy Alyana herself.
