Unwept
Gamin, Maine, is a remote seaside town where everyone seems to know Ellis Harkington better than she knows herself — but she doesn’t remember any of them.
Unknown events have robbed Ellis of her memory. Concerned individuals, who purport to be her friends and loved ones, insist that she simply needs to recuperate, that her memories may return in time, but refuse to divulge what has brought her to this state. For her own sake, so they say.
Ellis finds herself adrift in a town of ominous mysteries, cryptic hints, and disturbingly familiar strangers. The Nightbirds, a clique of fashionable young men and women, claim her as one of their own, but who among them can she truly trust? And what of the phantom suitor who visits her in her dreams? Is he a memory, a figment of her imagination, or a living nightmare beyond rational explanation?
Only her lost past hold the answers she seeks — if she can uncover its secrets before she fall prey to an unearthly killer.

Tracy Hickman
In the realm of epic fantasy, where dragons soar and destinies hang by a thread, Tracy Hickman has long stood as both cartographer and conjurer—drawing maps of worlds no one knew they needed and breathing life into characters readers can’t forget. Best known as the co-creator of the Dragonlance saga alongside Margaret Weis, Hickman didn’t just help define a genre—he gave it a soul.
Born in Salt Lake City, Utah in 1955, Hickman was steeped in stories from a young age—not only the fantasy tales he loved, but the oral traditions of faith, family, and frontier that surrounded him. Before becoming a full-time writer, he worked jobs that ranged from theater tech to glass sales, each adding something unexpected to his narrative lens. But it was a Dungeons & Dragons campaign, designed for fun and shared among friends, that would alter the course of fantasy literature forever.
