Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - (Revised edition) Willowdale's winter isn't weather-it's a sentence. Snow falls like it's choosing targets. Frost marks appear on doorsteps like ownership brands. Fires die without ash, and people forget what 'summer' feels like, as if warmth itself has been stolen from their minds.Mara has lived her whole life under the village's quiet rules, until a sigil blooms under her skin and the storm starts saying her name in a language she's never learned. The truth drags her north to a cursed keep where silence eats screams and books are bound in skin, where the 'Beast' they blame isn't the curse-he's the warden who helped build the prison.Now Willowdale wants a clean salvation: kill the Beast, harvest his heart, force spring. But Mara discovers the darker mechanism beneath their faith-a rite that can transfer winter's hunger into a living vessel. and her bloodline is the only lock it recognizes. When the spirit's emissary steps out of the snow wearing a man like a mask, Mara must choose between becoming winter's crowned queen or cracking the curse open and letting the buried truth crawl into the light.The storm can recede.But spring is not mercy.
