Not ready to leave the world of Velmora yet?
Set one year before the events of The City Of Fractured Memory, this Christmas novella follows our favourite friends, Octavia and Stryx, on the first case that they worked on together.

Velmora's religious holiday, The Calling, is a night where the boundary between the realms is thinnest, and the citizens send be-spelled lanterns down into Lake Voyd, with the hope of sending messages to their loved ones who have passed into the realm of the dead. But this year, all is not as it seems– lanterns are returning, dark, and their owners? Dead. Can Octavia and Stryx figure out what's causing their deaths before more people fall victim to this silent curse?

In this novella, we will explore:
  • The first case that Octavia and Stryx worked together and the blossoming of their friendship

    More insight into the case that lost Octavia her job at the Division

    A fun little easter egg– the origin story of a new character we will soon meet in Book Two
