Mors vincit omnia. Death conquers all.
London, 1883. The Veil between the living and dead has thinned. Violet-eyed mediums commune with spirits under the watchful eye of the Royal Speaker Society, and sixteen-year-old trans, autistic Silas Bell would rather rip out his violet eyes than become an obedient Speaker wife.
After a failed attempt to escape an arranged marriage, Silas is diagnosed with Veil sicknessĆ¢ā¬āa mysterious disease sending violet-eyed women into madnessĆ¢ā¬āand shipped away to BraxtonĆ¢ā¬ā¢s Finishing School and Sanitorium. When the ghosts of missing students start begging Silas for help, he decides to reach into BraxtonĆ¢ā¬ā¢s innards and expose its guts to the worldĆ¢ā¬āso long as the school doesnĆ¢ā¬ā¢t break him first.
Featuring an autistic trans protagonist in a historical setting, Andrew Joseph WhiteĆ¢ā¬ā¢s much-anticipated sophomore novel does not back down from exposing the violence of the patriarchy and the harm inflicted on trans youth who are forced into conformity.
