Book excerpt: Frauke’s illegal magic gives her the ability to manipulate people’s memories, a power that has kept her trapped in service to a ruthless man since she was a child. When disaster hits unexpectedly, she seizes the sudden opportunity to escape and vows to never look back, never use her magic for ill purposes again, and learn to live in an entirely new way. As she strikes out on her own, Frauke soon finds herself allied with Kaourintin, a fugitive royal guard who fled the palace upon realizing that his life was in danger. Frauke is determined to help Kaourintin remain safe and free while he does the same for her. For both of their sakes, she must unravel their king’s mysterious schemes by delving into the vast, strange realm of memory. The realm is full of forgotten knowledge, lost wonders and solitary ghosts, each with their own story of loss, and Frauke will contend with them all in her search for the truth. As their fledgling friendship blossoms into something more, Frauke and Kaourintin will have to learn to stand together and confront the cruelty they have endured, the enemies who still pursue them, and the ancient dangers they have unearthed.​ When We Walked in Memory explores an ethereal magical realm’s deepest mysteries, spins a delicate, vulnerable romance full of slow-building trust, and remains grounded in its dedication to depicting the extraordinary emergence of survivorhood, solidarity, and healing.
