To survive the game, you must burn your past. To win it, you must not lose yourself.
Every fifteen years, a golden dove selects the participants. Thousands are taken from Earth and dropped onto Osys-a lethal, alien planet-for a brutal survival trial broadcast live to billions of screens back home.
There are no weapons on Osys. There is only magic. And magic has a devastating price: it is fueled by literally burning your own memories. A Tuesday commute can start a fire; the memory of your mother's face can stop an avalanche. The ultimate victor is granted eternity-and the right to save one person.
Anne arrived tied to Erick, a charismatic, manipulative husband perfectly designed to thrive in a ruthless social hierarchy. Henry arrived alone, a clinical trauma nurse carrying the quiet grief of losing his parents, determined to be useful and stay out of the way.
But Osys does not let you hide. As their camp starves, freezes, and fractures, Henry secretly burns the most precious pieces of his soul to keep them alive. Anne is the only one who sees exactly what his protection is costing him.
In a world where everyone is violently forgetting who they were, Anne and Henry must navigate a deadly camp, a toxic leader, and a magnetic, undeniable pull toward each other. When the final judgment arrives, will they have enough of themselves left to choose love over eternity?
For readers who crave devastating choices, intense slow-burn tension, and a love that outlasts memory itself.
