Stories from the Rondel, Book 2
Silvana Mond lost Matthias twice.
The first was his natural death—while she remained locked in her laboratory searching for the formula that would save him. The second occurred because she didn't know how, or didn't want to, let him go.
She opened a door that should never have been opened. And Matthias came back with company.
The consequences will haunt her for centuries: a corrupted Garden, a guilt that never rests, and a debt to the supernatural world. But they will also lead her to the Rondel of the Black Forest—a place larger on the inside than the outside, where souls with unfinished stories wait among the roots, and where time bends according to its own capricious rules.
There, Silvana will have to learn something far more difficult than the secret of immortality.
To let go.
