Sinopsis

A ground-breaking surgical intervention promises to free women from psychological disorders. The procedure is painless, the risks are minimal, and patients are calmer and more compliant after healing. The doctor promises them a new and productive life, free from suffering – can it be so simple?
Meret is a nurse on the surgical ward. The hospital is her home, and her uniform is her identity. She supports her patients through their interventions and is proud to be a part of the solution. But when she falls in love with another nurse, she crosses an invisible boundary and her certainty in the system begins to crumble.
With echoes of Kazuo Ishiguro and Margaret Atwood, this is the story of a world of rigid hierarchies and a love with its own rules.

    “This tale that I am about to tell is of a little boy who lived and suffered in those dark middle ages; of how he saw both the good and the bad of men, and of how, by gentleness and love and not by strife and hatred, he came at last to stand above other men and to be looked up to by all.”—from the book 
    Young Otto is born into a warring household in a lawless age. Having no mother, he is sent by his father, a valiant robber baron, to be safely raised by the monks until the age of twelve. But when he returns, gentle Otto can no longer escape the bitter blood feud between his father and the rival house of Trutz-Drachen. He is kidnapped by the rival family and his hand is cut off, to be replaced forever by a silver one. Can his brave father and his captor’s kind daughter, Pauline, help him escape?

    In the quiet village of Briarhollow, survival means treating impossible things like dangerous weather. The mortal world frays at the edge of the dark briarwood veil, and the villagers know to ward their doors with iron, salt, and rowan. But when the blackthorn hedge begins to sing with an unnatural, hungry melody, Emma Hall knows that grief is asking for a chair at the table. Blessed—and cursed—with true-sight, Emma can pierce glamours to see the terrifying truth beneath. So when a strangely beautiful, frost-rimmed flower is left on a neighbor's doorstep, Emma sees it for what it truly is: not a gift, but a sinister warning desperate to be invited inside. With the veil's magic pressing closer to her home and a mysterious mark waiting beneath her skin, Emma must rely on her wits and saltcloth armor to keep the dark forest at bay.
