About this audiobook
Every death at Ashbourne Athenaeum was carefully recorded.
When Evelyn Marrow accepts a prestigious librarian position at the isolated Ashbourne Athenaeum, she believes she has finally escaped a lifetime of being overlooked by scholars who valued her skill but denied her authority. Instead, she arrives at a decaying Gothic estate where names appear in the catalogue before people die, vanished librarians leave warnings in hidden drawers, and the library itself seems to breathe through its endless shelves.
As Evelyn uncovers the horrifying truth beneath Ashbourne House, she finds herself trapped inside a system older than memory — one built on records, sacrifice, and the terrible belief that no life should ever go unaccounted for. But the deeper she descends into the living archive beneath the Athenaeum, the more she realizes the library is not searching for victims.
It is searching for librarians.
Some libraries protect knowledge.
Ashbourne recorded the dead.
