Description

Falsely accused of treason and poisoning, a saint candidate meets a tragic end—only to wake up reincarnated as a minor character in the very novel that described her downfall. Given a second chance at childhood, she resolves to live virtuously and succeeds beyond measure: she wins the duke's favor, befriends his eldest son who was supposed to die because of her, and even heals his terminally ill younger brother. Yet as she carefully avoids the original plot's death flags, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to multiple potential romantic interests. Stranger still, Diana—the supposed heroine—has turned hostile. When she mysteriously loses her heart and no pulse can be found, she must uncover what it truly means to exist outside the narrative she's trapped in.
