In a series of letters from a different timeline, Etinaye beseeches her father to save her from being murdered by her sister.
It says in the author’s bio that this is one story in a series and it certainly reads like that. While there are enough tantalizing hints about multiple timelines and “threadkeepers” to give us a sufficient glimpse of the setting, which looks very interesting, the characters themselves definitely get the short shrift. I just couldn’t bring myself to care about any of them which left me with just some magical mumbo jumbo and a standard plot twist.
