ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig tells the story of Elspeth, a young woman in the isolated city of Blunder who secretly harbors magic from a childhood infection and shares her mind with an ancient entity called the Nightmare. When she encounters a captivating outlaw, Elspeth is pulled into a dangerous world of secrets and deception centered around the forbidden Cards of Providence, the only source of legal magic. As she navigates shadowy alliances and unravels the history of the Cards and the Reaping King, Elspeth's connection to the Nightmare deepens, blurring the lines between protector and threat, while she grapples with her own hidden abilities in a kingdom that fears and persecutes magic. The narrative explores themes of forbidden magic, inner monsters, political intrigue, and the blurred boundaries between good and evil.
