Two centuries after the Godfell War, Ilahna knows that the only way to survive in Clearwall is to be faster and smarter than everyone else. She stays on her toes, steals what she needs... and never EVER mentions magic.
Because magic is the way of the Faoii, and witches get burned in Clearwall.
Being silent isn't always enough, though, and when her brother starts manifesting mysterious powers, Ilahna knows they don't have much time.
Hunted across Clearwall, the siblings must unbury a lifetime's worth of lies and secrets with the help of unlikely allies...or find themselves lashed to the pyre like all the Faoii that came before.
