One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig is a haunting, gothic fantasy where magic is dangerous, secrets are deadly, and the monster may already live within.

In the mist-locked kingdom of Blunder, Elspeth Spindle survives by relying on the Nightmare, an ancient spirit bound inside her mind. He keeps her safe. He keeps her hidden. But magic always demands a price, and the longer she leans on him, the more control he takes.

A chance encounter with a mysterious highwayman pulls Elspeth into a world of treason, shadow, and forbidden power. Drawn into a desperate quest to rid Blunder of its dark magic, she must help gather the twelve Providence Cards before it consumes everything. The danger grows with every step, as does the pull between Elspeth and the man who may cost her everything.

Moody, atmospheric, and utterly addictive, One Dark Window is perfect for readers who love dark fairy tales, sentient magic, and slow-burning romance wrapped in tension and dread. A stunning beginning to a duology that lingers long after the final page.
