The Last Catalogue of Winter
In a rain-swept city where libraries are guarded like fortresses, a catalogue compiler discovers that certain forgotten books can alter the terms of old magical bargains. When she is sent to recover a missing volume from a sealed archive, she is drawn into a wary alliance with the man sworn to keep the archive closed. The deeper they search, the more it becomes clear that the city’s quiet magic has been built on one very dangerous omission.
