If you lose everything in one night in the hungry flame - your parents , your home , everything you know and rely on . Will you come out of the flames whole enough , to support and take care of your only family member alive ? Because she did . If enemy soldiers kill half of your village and attempt to kidnap your sister. Will you find in yourself enough strength , to make a bargain and to lie which is the eldest and take her place instead? She did . If you are dragged in another realm where magic exists , where you need to make another bargain to protect your sister , your best friend , what remains of your village , without knowing what they want from you ? Will you go into a cursed labyrinth to fight your worse nightmares, only to save a man you've known only for a couple weeks , but you know he is the right for you ?
If you want to know more , read the dark fantasy debut by T.A Crowner , for the power of family love , and how trauma can change . Very Stubborn FMC , dark martyr type of MMC , a beautiful tale of strong friendship connections . Solid 4 star read for me .
