Hope Sonya’s dreams collapse: her eldest daughter, Lisa, awakens a dark gift, and it demands brave decisions from the girl. Together with her brother, Frederick, the young necromancer secretly learns forbidden spells and prepares to enter the magical Academy. Lisa has no idea that her parents have already mapped out her fate in their own way—and a new invention of the Order of the Inquisition will help bring their plan to life.
The second book of the cycle “Sandberg Archive,” volume 1, “A City at the Edge of the World.”
