Evelyn Notte's had sixteen years to make Elysium her home, but not by she only survived her husband's betrayal by fusing with the ley line beneath the asylum's foundation. Now rumor has it Adam is back to his old tricks, and if Adam's alive maybe there's still a chance for the newborn daughter he stole from Evelyn so many years ago. The only way out of Elysium is the Nightmare buried at its core. Waking him means reigniting a long-stalled war and giving up what little is left of her humanity, but Evelyn's not going to lose her daughter again - and she's sure as hell not going to let Adam walk away a second time.

after her husband’s betrayal, evelyn’s spent the last sixteen years stuck in elysium. when she hears that he’s back up to his old tricks, evelyn begins to have hope for their daughter he’d stolen from her. desperate to get her daughter back, evelyn wakes the nightmare buried at the core of elysium, thereby reigniting an old war and giving up the little humanity she had left.
as an all for the game fan, i just had to check out nora’s ONE published non-aftg book. and, actually, it wasn’t bad. i did almost dnf it not too far in, but i decided to stick with it, and i’m glad i did. evelyn’s story was so interesting, from her backstory—being betrayed by her husband and losing her newborn daughter—to her present situation—awakening nightmare and coming into her own power. that said, the plot itself was just okay. i’d be interested in revisiting this world and these characters, though!
