Elias Thorne awakens alone in the frozen wilderness of Frosthaven, memories fragmented and body numb from the biting cold. The world is alive with subtle threats—shadows that move of their own accord, frost curling into unnatural shapes, and whispers that scratch at the edges of his mind. When Kael, a hardened survivor, drags him to safety, Elias glimpses the fragile line between life and death—and the cruel truth that the world itself may be hunting him.
