About this ebook
In a world where music is magic, Sarya dyr-Rusac can hear music no one else hears. In exile after a magical wedding ritual she composed went tragically wrong, she hears haunting new music in the wind, music that heralds terrible new forces at work – or forces so old they have long been forgotten.
As disasters shake the world, unaffected by the chants that should control them, Sarya returns to the music school she left in disgrace, to search for answers to what has gone wrong with the music. There, she confronts the mistakes of her past, defies the Masters who think long-forgotten secrets are best left forgotten – and resumes her complicated relationship with the talented singer Adan Muari, friend, antagonist, the man she can never have.
Then a beautiful, nameless man in chains begins to appear in her dreams, begging her to sing the song she heard in the wind, the song that will set him free. Is he a god with the power to save the world? Or is he a demon who is planning to destroy everything she knows and loves – including Adan, whose feelings for Sarya are far more than she ever guessed.
As catastrophe closes in and Adan fights to protect her from those who will stop at nothing to keep her from learning the truth, Sarya digs deep into forbidden books and draws on all her skills and knowledge in a race to discover the chained man's identity and the meaning of his song before the world itself is torn apart.
Lose yourself in this heart-wrenching tale of music and magic, demons and betrayal, and a love that endures beyond hope.
