Mercy: The Deep That Dreams
Some griefs are too deep to keep.
Three weeks after the night that broke the Keeping, the town of Mercy is learning, too loudly, how to grieve. But Wren, the Hollow girl who became the door a century of sorrow once passed through, is beginning to crack. Grief that should slide off her is finding the hairline seams the Deep left behind.
When a single gold light rises from the Underkeep wearing no face at all, it leads Wren inland to a valley whose cold place is being emptied from below by something that has spent sixty years learning what people are afraid of, and has only one question left to ask.
To answer it, Wren must go deeper than anyone has ever gone: into the records of the family who built the Keeping, walked down into the dark two hundred years ago, and never came back up.
The Deep That Dreams is the second book in The Keeping, a haunting, atmospheric dark-fantasy trilogy for readers of Susanna Clarke, T. Kingfisher, and Naomi Novik. A story about grief, memory, and the quiet mercy of being witnessed.
