Description:
She never wanted power. She just wanted to survive.
Nineteen-year-old Ellary Dane lives by her wits, her herbs, and a quiet vow to protect the only family she has left. In a city that looks down on the poor and crushes the powerless, survival already feels like a daily battle. Then one violent night shatters her fragile control, and Ellary crosses a line she can never uncross.
When the king’s guard comes for her, Ellary expects chains, judgment, and death. Instead, she is dragged into a court that believes she is something far more dangerous than a common market girl. A mistake, a hidden sigil, and a power she doesn’t understand thrust her into a world of secrets, prisons, and political games where truth is more lethal than lies.
As Ellary grapples with guilt, fear, and the weight of a gift she never asked for, she refuses to be a pawn. She bargains. She resists. She fights to protect the man who raised her and the life she built with her own hands. But every choice tightens the net around her, and every secret brings her closer to a fate she may not survive.
If Ellary embraces what the court believes her to be, she could change the balance of power forever. If she refuses, she may lose everything she loves.
Sigil in Shadow is a gripping fantasy novel filled with court intrigue, mistaken identity, slow-burn tension, and a fiercely resilient heroine. If you enjoy immersive worlds, high emotional stakes, and characters who fight back against impossible odds, you’ll love Constance Roberts’s dark, absorbing tale.
