A historical fantasy thriller set against the tragic grandeur of the Titanic, for readers who love dark magic, slow-burn romance, and history's greatest untold stories.
The year is 1912. In the fog-draped shipyards of Belfast, the most magnificent vessel ever built is taking shape... and so is a conspiracy that could unravel the fabric of the world itself.
Richard Pierce has a gift that has become a prison. He reads emotions the way others read faces, and he strips away lies as easily as paint from old wood. Once, that power cost an innocent man his life. Now it costs Richard his peace, until a trail of dark magic and murder pulls him out of hiding and into the belly of the great shipyard where secrets breathe between the steel beams.
There, he meets Isabel Lahy.
She is sharp, relentless, and brilliant, a designer who belongs in rooms where women are not supposed to sit and who refuses to apologize for it. And she is, impossibly, silent to Richard's gift. For the first time in his life, he cannot read a single soul behind her eyes. She is a fortress. She is maddening. She is the one mystery he cannot solve, even as the connection between them grows into something neither of them planned for.
But there is something far more dangerous than desire lurking in the shadows of the shipyard.
Azrael is old. Older than the Harland & Wolff yard, older than Belfast, older than the languages that gave death its name. He is a sorcerer of terrifying power, and he has spent lifetimes in pursuit of the one thing that has always escaped him: immortality. Now he is close. The ritual is set. The stage is chosen.
The RMS Titanic.
As Richard and Isabel are swept aboard the grandest ship in the world, they are drawn into a hidden war between enchanters and sorcerers, ancient pacts and modern ambitions, a world layered invisibly beneath the gleaming promenade decks and the first-class dining rooms. The secrets buried at the heart of this conspiracy are older than the steel hull, older than the rivalry of nations, and far more dangerous than the iceberg-scattered waters of the North Atlantic.
With the clock counting down to catastrophe, Richard must face the darkness he has carried inside himself for years, a darkness that mirrors Azrael's more than he would like to admit. And he must decide if he is willing to trust the woman he is falling in love with, the one person he has never been able to see clearly.
Can Richard stop Azrael before an ancient evil reshapes the world from the deck of an unsinkable ship? Or will the final secret and everyone who holds it be swallowed by the cold and indifferent sea?
