Veiled Twilight
Amberfield is a city of secrets, and Masha Montclair has learned to keep hers well. By day, she works in an apothecary. By night, she experiments with forbidden magic—until an old friend, now a wealthy merchant, draws her into the shadows of a powerful magical order. But when her curiosity leads her to a forgotten underground chamber, she unknowingly awakens something ancient—a vampire bound by vengeance.
As whispers of blood magic and lost talismans surface, Masha is caught in a dangerous game where knowledge is power, and power is a deadly trap. With enemies lurking in the dark and uneasy alliances forming, she must decide who to trust before the city’s secrets consume her. But in a world where monsters wear many faces, will she uncover the truth before it's too late?
"The past never stays buried... and neither do the dead."
