About Unburied

When what calls to her most often is Death... Ghadra is being rebuilt. The devouring forest is content. And Lux Thorn has set out to keep a promise made to those she's come to care for. Lux understands the mysterious buyers of lifeblood to be rich and well-connected. When she encounters an intriguing book collector of a prestigious institution, she cannot ignore her suspicions over the wealthy company he keeps. Seizing the chance to investigate, she accepts an invitation to his remote estate. Mothlock Manor sits on rugged cliffs. Surrounded by venomous brambles, unsettling statues, and a breathtaking view of the sea, Lux experiences a true sense of belonging for the first time in her life. But in her quest to uncover if it houses the secret she searches for, her thoughts begin to twist and darken in its halls. An eerie voice whispers in her head. Her nightmares manifest. And Lux's brilliance falters in a dramatic way. The book collector is one of an old Society promising a cure for her diseased mind; she fears she cannot trust a single one. Worst of all-she can no longer trust herself. For fans of the Belladonna series and A Sorceress Comes to Call, Unburied is the final book in the Dark Brilliance Duology, a YA gothic fantasy that follows a young necromancer as she accepts an invitation to a remote estate in order to investigate the prestigious Society that resides there. While uncovering buried pasts and corrupt allegiances, Unburied explores themes of acceptance and friendship in a macabre world. Welcome to Mothlock.
