In un mondo intriso di negromanzia e alchimia devastato dalla guerra, una donna senza ricordi combatte per la propria sopravvivenza contro chi vuole portare alla luce i segreti più profondi del suo passato. Un tempo brillante alchimista, Helena Marino è ora una prigioniera di guerra, intrappolata dai suoi carcerieri, ma anche dalla sua stessa mente. I suoi amici e compagni della Resistenza sono stati brutalmente assassinati, le sue abilità annientate e il mondo che conosceva ridotto in cenere. Ora, all'indomani della lunga guerra, Helena è nelle mani della nuova classe dirigente di Paladia: potenti famiglie di gilde corrotte e spietati negromanti, vittoriosi grazie alla creazione di orrende creature non-morte. Secondo gli archivi della Resistenza, Helena era una guaritrice di scarsa importanza. Tuttavia la sua inspiegabile perdita di memoria nei mesi precedenti la cattura solleva un dubbio inquietante tra i suoi nemici: è davvero così insignificante come sembra, o nei ricordi sepolti della sua mente si nasconde l'ultima, vitale mossa della Resistenza? Per scoprirlo, Helena viene affidata all'Alto Reeve, uno dei negromanti più potenti e temuti del nuovo regime. Chiusa nella sua tenuta decadente, dovrà lottare per proteggere la verità e conservare ciò che resta di sé. Ma la sua prigione e il suo aguzzino celano oscuri segreti... segreti che Helena dovrà svelare, a qualunque costo.
