The choice between two lords is made. From now on, my husband is Dagmer Gessen. Cold, mysterious, dangerous. The longer I’m with him, the less I understand: why did he choose me? And the more often I catch myself thinking—his decision contains something more than ordinary calculation.
I can talk to ghosts. Only they go silent when I need answers most. My mother died under strange circumstances, and now I have to uncover this secret myself—even if the truth destroys everything I believed.
And in the palace, fragile peace is collapsing. What looked like a ridiculous accident turns out to be part of a grand plan. Who stands behind this conspiracy? And is my husband involved?
Between duty and passion, between the past and the future—I’m on the brink of a precipice. Because some secrets are better left in the shadows.
