Katrina of Harrowkeep

Katrina has never been important.

She is a kitchen girl at Harrowkeep, a frontier fortress where stone walls, hard winters, and old duties shape every life within them. She wakes before the bell, tends the fires, carries trays to men who command more than she ever will, and steals what small happiness she can from ribbons, kitchen warmth, and the few people who have made room for her in their lives.

Then something awakens in her.

In a world where beauty is more than appearance; where it can become influence, healing, danger, and command. Katrina discovers that she carries an Aspect, a rare power that changes not only what she can do, but what others believe she is worth. Her hands can mend torn flesh. Her sight can reach beneath skin. Each change draws her farther from the ordinary life she knew, and closer to the attention of soldiers, nobles, healers, and enemies who understand the value of a gifted woman on the edge of war.
