Monsters. Magic. Memory loss. And one cursed town on the edge of ruin.
As Blackthorn’s only hedgewitch, Aziza El-Amin handles everything from wayward wood nymphs to shadow beasts in the park. But when a dark force awakens, the veil between realms thins—and something hungry slips through.
Leo Merritt can’t remember the name of the person he once loved. A curse stole his memories and left a gaping absence. Desperate, he teams up with Aziza: he’ll help patrol the woods, and she’ll help break his curse.
But the creature stalking their town won’t go quietly. And when a secretive necromancer enters the mix, trust becomes a weapon—and sacrifice a certainty.
The Buried and the Bound is a gorgeously dark YA fantasy filled with haunted forests, dangerous bargains, and slow-burning secrets.
