(“This is a book about madness. Madness is hard to understand for those who aren’t mad. It’s impossible to describe once you are. So, perhaps this book is about failure. Failure of communication. Failure of empathy. The failure that is love.”)

The world is unravelling. Cities descend, the skies are closing, and the future has been stolen by those who can afford eternity. Ryul, newly immortal, drifts through the ruins of her home, numb with guilt and longing for an end that will not come.
Until Erna, the assassin who killed her parents, steps across the threshold of her life.
Death, in a beautiful human shape.

Together, she and Erna trace the edges of a dying world—through riots and catacombs, fleeting memories and inevitable betrayals—seeking not salvation but the fragile shimmer of connection.
