For over three centuries, the kingdom has not changed.
Children are born, kings rule, armies march—and when forty years pass, the world quietly resets. No one leaves. No one ages beyond their allotted span. And no one remembers the moment time corrects itself… except the mechanisms that enforce it.
Erin has lived her life in obscurity. Raised by the church, trained as a scribe, she has learned to survive by being invisible. But when she uncovers a sealed codex written in blood and bound by forbidden magic, she discovers the truth of her inheritance: royal blood, a mage’s legacy, and a fate entwined with the clock that imprisons the realm.
The clock was never meant to preserve life.
It was built to contain a stolen fragment of a dragon’s heart—power torn from a god and bound with gold, blood, and sacrifice. Its creation required betrayal, cruelty, and a price far greater than its makers ever admitted. Now its architect’s daughter is the only one who can unmake it.
To do so, Erin must confront the king who ordered her mother’s death, the immortal administrator who enforces history through terror, and a system that punishes deviation by aging its victims to dust in moments. She must decide whether mercy is possible without forgiveness—and whether freeing time will destroy the world it has held in place.
As ancient worshippers rise to defend the lie they have bled for, armies march beneath banners forgotten for centuries, and a dragon stirs beneath stone and opal, Erin learns the final truth written in the Codex:
What is bound by blood can only be freed by blood.
A dark, morally driven fantasy of time, power, and consequence—where immortality is a sentence, balance demands sacrifice, and freedom has a cost measured in centuries.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
