A Sneak Peek
When fifteen-year-old Vesper Thorne discovers her grandfather’s mechanical compass in the attic, she thinks it’s just another broken trinket from his workshop. But when the needle begins spinning wildly at midnight and a doorway opens in her bedroom wall, she realizes some inheritances come with instructions written in starlight and danger. Beyond that door lies Cinderglass, a world where time moves like water and memories can be stolen from the air itself. With only the compass and her wits, Vesper must navigate floating markets, befriend a sharp-tongued cartographer named Quillan, and uncover why her grandfather spent forty years guarding a secret that could unravel two worlds. Because in Cinderglass, every tick of the clock brings her closer to a choice: save the world she knows, or the world she’s beginning to love.
