Overview

In the soot-stained city of Ossa-Upon-Silt, pain is a currency. And Eulalia Gault is the only one who can't spend it. Eulalia is a Forensic Archivist for the desperate. In a world where the aristocracy wears ""Sorrow-Glass""-jewelry forged from the calcified trauma of the poor-she specializes in auditing the dead. Born with a condition that leaves her unable to feel physical pain, she is efficient, cynical, and invisible. Until she is summoned to the Harrow House. Cassius Rooker, known only as ""The Solitary,"" is the last surviving member of a twenty-year-old Tontine pact. He is disfigured, immensely wealthy, and legally, he should be dead. But Cassius is very much alive, and he needs Eulalia to prove it before the contract's final clause executes him. Trapped in his decaying estate, Eulalia discovers that the Tontine wasn't just a financial gamble-it was a blood ritual. As she unravels the ledger, she finds herself drawn to the broken, volatile man who feels the world too intensely. But the entity hunting them isn't human. It is the contract itself, waking up to claim its due. To break the deal, Eulalia must offer the one thing she has never possessed: a true, agonizing sacrifice. A dark, atmospheric Romantasy for fans of gothic mysteries and obsession. Perfect for readers who crave high stakes, twisted magic, and a love story that bleeds.
