In this stunning debut gothic fantasy, a young woman haunted by the mystery of her sister’s death must infiltrate a deadly banquet, hosted by her former lover, to finally gain the closure she deserves. A reimagining of Poe’s "The Tell-Tale Heart" with a romantic twist that begs the question: What makes a villain?

Ianira Henbane knows that Lucien Blackwood is a murderer. All she needs is proof.

Condemned as a madwoman, Ianira spent ten years immured in an asylum for the Tainted—those who gain magic through death, at the cost of their sanity. Now released on probation, she’s desperate to expose her sister’s murderer and reclaim her freedom. But only one man holds the truth: her first love, Lucien Blackwood. Unfortunately, since he’s the prime suspect, things are a bit...complicated between them.

After a decade of silence, Lucien is finally re-opening the doors to Blackwood Manor for a once-in-a-lifetime competition. He’s seeking a successor to inherit his family’s magic; a proposal that’s too tempting for the greedy residents of Callidor to resist. It’s also Ianira’s last chance to confront him before
