<p>By Patrick Rochefort and Keith Aksland</p> <p>From Winter’s Ashes – A Detective with nothing left to lose, against a Necromancer with the world to gain.</p> <p>In a world where everyone can use magic, stopping necromantic crimes requires detectives who can solve mysteries and crack skulls.</p> <p>Detective Heather Blackthorne’s victory over a necromantic cult was too short-lived. The lone survivor of the cult butchered her husband and son in front of her eyes, so she would be forced to watch him steal their bones. She thought it was the worst moment of her life. She was wrong.</p> <p>A year later, her life shattered, her career is in ruins, and her last shot at redemption has gone wrong. Heather is sent in disgrace to the high North by the Church she serves. What peace is to be found in that quiet arctic outpost is all too quickly broken, as her past comes hunting for far more than her, this time.</p> <p>A webfiction serial, published weekly, From Winter’s Ashes offers a rich world where emotion fuels magic and great spirits walk the earth, all while telling the human tale of one woman’s struggle to put her family to rest.</p> <p>You can follow the tale here on Royal Road, or directly on the From Winter’s Ashes website at http://fromwintersashes.wordpress.com</p> <p>Help support From Winter’s Ashes, become a Patreon sponsor! http://www.patreon.com/RochefortWrites</p>
