What do you think is so important that you're guarding in your head? The war is over. Holdfast is dead. The Eternal Flame has gone out. There's no one left whom you can save.
In this captivating debut, in the finest traditions of dark fantasy, a woman with lost memories fights for her survival in a world torn apart by war between necromancy and alchemy – and against the man who must uncover the deepest secrets of her past. Once a promising alchemist, Helena Marino is now a prisoner – of the war and of her own crumbling mind. Her friends and allies in the Resistance have been brutally slaughtered, her abilities suppressed, and the world she knew is destroyed.
After the end of the long war, the new ruling elite of Paladia – corrupt families and perverted necromancers whose vile undead creatures won the victory – holds Helena captive. According to the Resistance's archives, she was an insignificant healer. But Helena suffers from inexplicable amnesia, and her enemies want to know whether her lost memories hide the Resistance's last desperate plans?
The sentence is for Helena to be sent to the Supreme Governor – one of the most powerful and merciless necromancers in the new world. Confined to the decaying family estate, Helena is only beginning her true battle – to protect her lost past and preserve the last remnants of her hidden essence. For both the prison and her jailer hide their own secrets… secrets that Helena must uncover – at all costs.
