Chapter 6 · free to read
One week. Seraphine could walk again. The bell was hung. And the ledger would not stop glowing that one word.
A week of standing had cost her more than the fall did, and she was standing anyway.
The bell they hung to mourn her rang the day the case reopened. Nobody had pulled the rope.
The stones came up rather than down, which is not what a thing breaking out of somewhere does.
