Ebony

Synopsis Ebony

“Be quiet. Shut up and live like the dead.”

Ebony Vonieck is a convicted felon for the murder of her fiancé and father. While waiting for her execution in prison, she is suddenly released from her hell when she is informed that the progressive Archduke of Schneider Castle is waiting for her. Broken by her imprisonment, resigned to the charges against her, and expecting her life to become a living hell, what awaits her instead is a household of warm employees and servants. Ebony has no idea that the Archduke will help change her life and make use of her drive to change the chauvinistic social system of the Kingdom of Kalcass that condemned her to die for a crime she didn’t commit.

Accused of being a witch and a murderer, Evony’s imprisoned. For years, she awaits the day of her execution, her back bearing scars from beatings inflicted by the guards who despise her. But one day, she is granted her freedom and placed into the guardianship of Grand Duke Schneider. Warmed by his doting staff and under his admiring tutelage, she regains her strength and becomes the wild card in an intricate game of power. With nothing to lose, will Evony orchestrate a new future for the empire?
