C. L. Polk arrives on the scene with\u00a0Witchmark<\/i>, a stunning, addictive fantasy that combines intrigue, magic, betrayal, and romance.<\/b><\/p>\n

In an original world reminiscent of Edwardian England in the shadow of a World War, cabals of noble families use their unique magical gifts to control the fates of nations, while one young man seeks only to live a life of his own.<\/p>\n

Magic marked Miles Singer for suffering the day he was born, doomed either to be enslaved to his family’s interest or to be committed to a witches’ asylum. He went to war to escape his destiny and came home a different man, but he couldn\u2019t leave his past behind. The war between Aeland and Laneer leaves men changed, strangers to their friends and family, but even after faking his own death and reinventing himself as a doctor at a cash-strapped veterans’ hospital, Miles can\u2019t hide what he truly is.<\/p>\n

When a fatally poisoned patient exposes Miles\u2019 healing gift and his witchmark, he must put his anonymity and freedom at risk to investigate his patient\u2019s murder. To find the truth he\u2019ll need to rely on the family he despises, and on the kindness of the most gorgeous man he\u2019s ever seen.<\/p>\n
