Blackvale doesn't forget its sins. It buries them. Jinx learned early that mercy doesn't exist in the Broken Street. After her family is destroyed by lies whispered in the dark, she survives by refusing to kneel to hunger, to fear, or to the city's rulers. But when she awakens the Heart buried beneath Blackvale, she becomes something far more dangerous than a rebel. Chosen. Bound. Watched. As the city fractures and ancient systems awaken, Jinx is hunted by nobles who fear her, Wardens built to erase her, and a power that believes obedience is destiny. The Heart offers her a throne. Jinx intends to burn it instead. Because some cities deserve to fall. And some monsters refuse to be owned.
