Where I come from, time is everything—you breathe it, spend it, bleed it. And every five years, when the Clockrealm’s magic supply runs low, the Turning Trials begin.
Twelve players. One mechanical arena. No guarantees.
My name is Ora Reese, and this year, I’m one of the twelve.
I entered the Trials to escape my life.
I didn’t expect to find something worth staying for.
Wonder and friends, talking flowers and strange tea parties, magic and mischief—and March. Wicked grin, beautiful eyes, and a way of looking at me like I might just hold his very soul in my hands. He learns my body like a language impossibly fast. He’s reckless and deliberate all at once, and he makes me forget I came here to run away without even trying.
It’s almost too good to be true. We’re in the heart of the Clockrealm, together, and these trials give us everything…
Then they start taking it back.
The lies surface slowly. The doubt and the terror are not far behind. These games are nothing like we were promised, and one of us isn’t who he claims to be. Buried deep beneath it all are secrets that would crack the entire Clockrealm wide open if they came out.
Walking away is not an option—only winning is.
But what happens when you win the game…and the game doesn’t end?
