Unmarked Witch
ALL RAVEN WANTS IS PEACE. BUT IN A MAGICAL REALM PLAGUED BY DECEPTION, THE ONLY THING HER WORLD KNOWS IS TURMOIL. A land where witches wear their spells like tattoos is no place for a woman without a single magical mark-except for Raven, whose unblemished skin contradicts the truth of her power.

After the death of a coven leader heralds the start of the infamous Witch Trials, Raven finds herself dodging death to triumph.
