The Hidden House

New Paperback

Every vow leaves a mark. And in the court of Lys Maren, the dead remember every one.

Caelan is a registrar, the man who records the oaths and bargains that bind the noble Houses. He knows better than anyone that the most dangerous words are the ones no one bothers to hear anymore. When a summons draws him from his quiet keep into the glittering court at Lys Maren, he steps into a web of buried bloodlines, patient enemies, and debts twenty years overdue.

There, the vows sealed into the stone have begun to speak, and what they remember could unmake every promise holding the realm together.

Intricate, patient, and merciless, The First Vows is the opening move in an epic of political fantasy where power is measured in secrets and every promise is a blade.
