📚 WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT

A horror novel tracking two characters' rise to power across earthly and dead realms.

The narrative does not rely on flashbacks but moves forward through these dual perspectives. The result is a study of power dynamics between the living and the dead. Fans of supernatural fiction will appreciate the detailed focus on Ceit’s divine duties and Ainsley’s earthly struggles.
