The Library of Quiet Doors
In a city where certain doors lead only to lost places, Mara Vale is hired to catalogue a private library built around them. When she discovers that one of the doors is slowly opening into a forgotten kingdom, she is drawn into a careful, dangerous bargain with the man assigned to keep it shut. The work becomes harder when the library starts revealing that the kingdom was not lost by accident.
