She lost her sight. Then she lost everything else. London, 1800s. After a tragic accident leaves Cristal blind, she is stripped of her name and abandoned at a remote institution, reduced to a number—14420—in a system built to break her. But Cristal isn’t so easy to break. Amid cruelty and silence, she begins to fight back. Whispers of rebellion stir in the dark, and visions of a man in white promise a strange, fragile hope. In a world that refuses to see her as human, Cristal must decide who she is—and what she’s willing to risk for freedom.
