Description

Andrew Blankenship is a powerful necromancer living in a secluded house filled with stolen magical artifacts, forbidden secrets, and a cobbled-together manservant animated from what was once his beloved dog. Haunted by profound grief and struggling to control forces he barely understands, Andrew finds his isolated existence challenged by a friend and apprentice whose own troubled history makes her both ally and enigma. As strange magic gathers around them, their uneasy refuge becomes the center of a dangerous conflict that tests the boundaries between life, death, loyalty, and loss. Blending dark fantasy, mordant humor, and unsettling invention, the novel offers a richly original vision of magic and mourning.
