This book is on preorders with a planned late June release. The cover is a placeholder cover. The final file will be an EPUB.

Clémence Voyer’s one and only priority is Alain, ols five-year-old brother. Ol had been ready to kill countless witches to keep him safe. Montrant Industries’ crimes have been exposed, and now freed from Montrant Industries’ clutches and under witness protection, Clémence has a rare opportunity to give the boy a sense of normalcy and indulge his bird obsession.

The city of Val-de-mer is left with one obvious problem, however: over a thousand witches trapped in exocores need to be transferred safely into new bodies, and ols involvement in the creation of exocores is not so easily forgotten—not by the lovely Emmanuelle Duclos, the scientist in charge of devising a safe exocore transfer, not by the witch community ol betrayed, and not by Montrant Industries, who needs ol dead to protect itself. 

Mired in the middle of the exocore restoration project, Clémence is forced to face the people ol harmed. Ol will need to learn to trust again, and to figure out what it means to be accountable if ol wants to move forward, and finally be able to give Alain the idyllic life he deserves.
