Death is not the end... But to reclaim your soul from the Queen of the Underworld, you must be more cunning than the gods and more reckless than fate.
Olivia Cates was born with an understanding of the world's laws, yet she cannot summon even a trace of magic. To the aristocratic world, she is a "squib" to be mocked. After her adoptive mother's mysterious death and her family's power was coldly seized, she fell into ruin. Only the wisdom she draws from a vast sea of books remains her undying glimmer of hope.
When the secrets of the violet collide with the judgment of the silver-white knight!
When the darkest black magic and elemental magic shine together!
With wisdom for a blade! With darkness for a dagger!
Can those who live in the face of death reclaim their lost prologue?
