It shouldn’t have been possible.
Twenty-three years after the attack that killed his mother, Roy is looking for answers. Instead, he finds a weapon. A wand; imbued with unknown magic and carved with the symbol of Ardveld’s deceased royal family.
But the Arch Canlaw is on her deathbed, and fighting in the city, along with whispered doubts over the succession, has once again plunged Ardveld’s capital into turmoil.
What should have been a simple break-in pulls Roy into a new struggle for Ardveld’s leadership and, as voices from the past threaten to reveal history thought forgotten, the fate of the country itself hangs in the balance.

A multiple point-of-view fantasy set in the fictional land of Ardveld; a semi-modern country where magic and technology have existed side by side in relative harmony since the destruction of the royal family twenty-three years earlier. It follows four characters that accidentally get caught up in a conflict over an unknown type of magic as they uncover the truth about Ardveld’s past.
Themes include overcoming trauma, tradition vs change, and found family. The book has no content warnings and is aimed at a new-adult/adult audience, but would still be suitable for young adults or teens.
