Published

The cinder-charm she kept instead of surrendering it isn’t slag. It’s a fragment of a dragon’s shattered heart, and the warmth in her hands is about to unmake everything her town was built on.
Marlowe Ashford sifts ash for a living, which means she carries a gift no one in Rakemoor particularly wants her to have: a fragment of true dragon-heart burns warm against her skin, while a lie spoken nearby prickles cold before the warmth returns. Ordinary cinder feels like nothing at all. The piece she pulled from her last haul feels like a held breath.

She should have surrendered it to the Ember Wardens, the order that has policed the burned ruin of Solmere for ninety years, confiscating and purifying every charshard before it can gather, reassemble, and wake the dragon they claim destroyed an entire court in a single night. Instead, Marlowe keeps it—the first rule she’s broken in nine years of licensed sifting.

The field-warden sent to retrieve it is the last person Warrick Vayle expects to start questioning the order he has devoted his life to serving. But Marlowe’s evidence doesn’t stop with one missing shard: there are discrepancies in the purification records, an old woman condemned as ash-mad, a dead mother’s unanswered questions, and a warmth answering from the heart of the ruin.

The dragon didn’t destroy Solmere. Someone destroyed him, and the queen he died trying to protect, then built an entire order around the lie.

Reuniting the scattered fragments of the dragon’s heart could reveal the truth to the whole town, ninety years too late—and cost Rakemoor the only economy it has ever known. Marlowe and Warrick will have to decide whether the truth is worth destroying everything they were raised to protect, and whether what has grown between them is strong enough to survive what they uncover.

Perfect for readers who love a hidden-power heroine, a shattered dragon with a secret past, a duty-bound fae warden, and a forbidden truth that threatens an entire kingdom.
