He erased her sister. She was never supposed to remember. In Elarion, the Crown has the power to erase a person from the memories of the living. Liora Venn has spent seven years remembering the sister everyone insists never existed. When she confronts Caelan Veyr, the kingdom's most feared Namekeeper, she expects him to silence her. Instead, his magic fails for the first time in his life. Now the man she hates needs her help to uncover the memories he has lost, and the woman who despises him is the only person who can lead him to the truth. Their bargain is simple: he helps her find her sister, and she helps him discover what the Crown has stolen. But beneath the royal palace, thousands of forgotten names are beginning to wake. And every time Caelan saves Liora, the world forgets a little more about her. She has spent her life fighting to make sure the forgotten are remembered. She never expected to fall in love with the man who could forget her best. Some names are worth dying for. Others are worth living with the pain of remembering.
