In a kingdom where true names hold power over life, death, and destiny, one stolen name threatens to unravel the boundary between the living and the dead.

Aya is a Keeper of Names, sworn to oversee sacred ceremonies that guide souls into the afterlife. But when a true name refuses to burn during a funeral rite, she discovers a terrifying truth: someone has stolen a name that was never meant to survive.

As ghostly footprints appear across the lantern-lit city and forbidden names awaken beneath the palace, Aya is drawn into a deadly mystery that reaches back into her own forgotten childhood.

Her only ally may be Ren, a cursed man whose true name carries a devastating price. Together they must uncover the secret hidden within the Library of the Dead, confront a court that judges souls, and stop an ancient theft before the boundary between worlds collapses.

Perfect for readers who love atmospheric fantasy, dark romance, forbidden magic, slow-burn relationships, and richly imagined Asian-inspired worlds.

A haunting romantasy filled with secrets, ghosts, curses, and unforgettable love.
