What if the memory of your own death was a lie-and the ring that killed you had returned?
Mirelda Sorevane remembers accepting Lord Severin Draeven's silver ring.
She remembers becoming his bride.
She remembers dying before morning.
The trouble is, three other women remember dying for the same ring.
Now Severin has returned to Vespera with an ultimatum: identify the rightful bride before the Festival of Ashen Bells ends, or the Sorevane family will lose everything.
The ring fits only Mirelda.
Her search for answers leads to a burned hotel record, an abandoned hospital, and a ballroom mirror that reveals a fifth woman standing behind her family-a woman with a scarred hand and a face Mirelda has mourned for twelve years.
Her missing mother.
With the help of Maël Arquenay, a guarded city surveyor whose family is tied to Saint Orlena's Tower, Mirelda begins to uncover a conspiracy built on stolen memories, false deaths, and secrets buried beneath Vespera.
But every midnight bell takes something from her.
First, a song.
Then a voice.
Soon, even the face of the woman she is trying to save may disappear.
Readers will enter a world of hidden tunnels, forbidden bells, dangerous bargains, family betrayal, and slow-burning romantic suspense, where every clue brings Mirelda closer to the truth-and closer to forgetting why she began.
Enter Vespera before the thirteenth bell rings.
