Cassia Alarian has spent thirty years mastering the harmonies that hold her world together. Then a new invention does in hours what took her a lifetime to learn.
At forty-two, Cassia is a Sixfold Master Tuner, one of the rare people able to perceive and shape the resonant forces running through people, objects, and places.
The device should not be possible.
If the reports are true, it could transform access to harmony forever and challenge generations of Conservatory teaching. Cassia is sent to determine whether it is revolutionary or a fraud.
Instead, she finds questions she was never taught to ask.
Alongside Tristan Naveran, the pragmatic builder assigned as her guide, Cassia follows those questions through communities already touched by the device. Somewhere between unfamiliar cities, increasingly uncomfortable questions, and a partnership neither anticipated, something else begins to resonate between them.
Cassia has spent her life learning how harmony works, but the investigation begins challenging more than either of them anticipated.
She may be about to discover how much her world has forgotten.
For readers who love unusual magic systems, mature and competent protagonists, hidden histories, immersive journeys, philosophical mystery, and slow-burn romance, What Harmony Forgot begins The First Voices, an epic fantasy series about what happens when mastery is only the beginning.
