The Shadow Seamstress

di William Liu (Autore)

William Liu, 2026

In the city of lamps, a person's shadow is as real as their name, and the mender on Needle Row can sew one back. Linnet Farrow has been stitching shadows since she was nine. She has never met a client without one, until a duke walks into her shop with no shadow at all and twenty-nine days left to live. Corvin has paid for a year of silence. His shadow was cut from him on the Longest Night, and the thing that took it has been walking the city ever since, wearing his face. Linnet is the only mender who might be able to sew it home, and the price of the work is not coppers. As the days run down, she is pulled out of her mending hall and into the Umbral Exchange, the vault beneath it, and the pattern book her father left behind. Every stitch costs her something she cannot get back. Every night she spends beside the duke makes it harder to remember that she is only here to do a job. The Shadow Seamstress is a standalone fantasy romance with a marriage at its heart: a slow-burn story of a hard-handed woman and a lonely man, of debts that have to be paid in warmth, and of what two people owe each other when there is only one shadow between them.
