Overview

She is the vessel of life. He is the shepherd of death. Together, they must cure a world that wants to eat them alive. Mara is a Saint. Worshipped by the masses, she is the Golden Vessel, a healer capable of curing any ailment with a touch. But the Church hides a terrifying secret: Mara doesn't cure diseases; she absorbs them. Her body is a ticking time bomb of suppressed plagues, a living library of agony held in check by a fragile will. Sylas Vane is a Necromancer. Reviled, feared, and exiled to the graveyards, he is a surgeon of the soul who guides the restless dead to peace. He is the only man in the kingdom whose touch kills-and the only one who sees Mara for the monster she is becoming. When the Blossom Plague erupts-a horrifying contagion that turns flesh into wood and bone into flowers-the King forces these natural enemies into a desperate quarantine at Blackwood Manor. Trapped in a crumbling estate that breathes, bleeds, and hungers, Mara and Sylas must find a cure before the plague consumes the capital. But the rot goes deeper than the soil. As the manor tests their sanity and the plague evolves into a hive-mind of terrifying beauty, Mara and Sylas uncover a conspiracy that stretches from the crypts to the throne itself. To survive the garden, the Healer must learn to destroy, and the Necromancer must learn to save. Perfect for fans of Crimson Peak and Uprooted, this atmospheric, slow-burn gothic romance explores the thin line between divinity and monstrosity.
