Book Details:

Scotland, 1848. Something in the vaults is waking up.

On a granite headland above a black and hungry sea stands a fortress the maps don't show. Its people call it Warden's Crown. It belongs to the Null Horizon Authority - a secret order founded on a prophecy carved in stone older than the stars, sworn to stand between the world of ordinary men and the things pressing against its thinning skin.

Emilia Wilkerson has been there three months, learning to clean the relics that arrive by crate from the ends of the earth. She's good at the work. Too good.

Then the latest shipment arrives: a woman in chains who calls herself a Daughter of Duat, and a thing wrapped in five-thousand-year-old linen that no honest naturalist could classify. The woman has a warning. Her order has died, generation after generation, to keep the thing asleep. And the Authority has just laid it out on a laboratory table.

Ten days. That's the timeline.

As the fortress counts down toward the reckoning written before mankind learned to speak, Emilia must decide what she is, who she trusts, and what she's willing to lose to hold the line. Some borders were never meant to be crossed, and the thing beneath the wrappings has been waiting a very long time to cross this one.

A gothic tale of ancient horrors, buried secrets, and the price of standing watch.
