　　「何必再守著你腦袋裡的秘密？戰爭已經結束了。Holdfast死了，永恆之火也熄滅了，已經沒有人再需要你拯救了。」

　　曾經前途無量的煉金術士Helena Marino，如今卻被禁錮在那場戰場以及她自己的心裡。她的反抗軍夥伴以及盟友們，全都被殘暴地殺害，而她的能力也被壓制，她所知的那個世界已不復存在。

　　在一場長期的戰爭後，統治Paladia的勢力為腐敗的家族聯盟和喪心病狂的死靈法師，他們之所以能獲得此次勝利，是利用了亡靈生物來協助。並且在勝利之後，將Helena囚禁了起來。

　　根據反抗軍的紀錄來看，Helena只是個平凡的小小治療師，對組織沒有特殊貢獻。奇怪的是，就在Helena被捕的幾個月前，她失去了記憶，這讓敵人們懷疑，Helena真的有記錄顯示的那麼微不足道嗎？還是其實這段失去的記憶中，隱藏了反抗軍最終計劃的關鍵情報？

　　為了揭開Helena腦中的秘密，她被送到了High Reeve手上，新世界最強的死靈法師之一。此刻，Helena被困在High Reeve頹敗的莊園裡，她的最終戰鬥才正要開始。她必須保護這段失去的歷史，同時留住殘存的自我。囚犯和守衛都各自有自己的秘密，Helena必須不惜一切代價，盡可能揭穿這一切。(文／博客來外文館)

In this riveting dark fantasy debut, a woman with missing memories fights to survive a war-torn world of necromancy and alchemy—and the man tasked with unearthing the deepest secrets of her past.

This stunning hardcover edition features a deluxe jacket with gold foil on the front and a full-color illustration on the reverse, gorgeous designed endpapers, a gold foil case stamp, and, from acclaimed artist Avendell, a black-and-white interior illustration.

“What is it you think you’re protecting in that brain of yours? The war is over. Holdfast is dead. The Eternal Flame extinguished. There’s no one left for you to save.”

Once a promising alchemist, Helena Marino is now a prisoner—of war and of her own mind. Her Resistance friends and allies have been brutally murdered, her abilities suppressed, and the world she knew destroyed.

In the aftermath of a long war, Paladia’s new ruling class of corrupt guild families and depraved necromancers, whose vile undead creatures helped bring about their victory, holds Helena captive.

According to Resistance records, she was a healer of little importance within their ranks. But Helena has inexplicable memory loss of the months leading up to her capture, making her enemies wonder: Is she truly as insignificant as she appears, or are her lost memories hiding some vital piece of the Resistance’s final gambit?

To uncover the memories buried deep within her mind, Helena is sent to the High Reeve, one of the most powerful and ruthless necromancers in this new world. Trapped on his crumbling estate, Helena’s fight—to protect her lost history and to preserve the last remaining shreds of her former self—is just beginning. For her prison and captor have secrets of their own . . . secrets Helena must unearth, whatever the cost.
