Seventeen-year-old Eliza Waite is a difficult daughter. She has her father’s intellect, her mother’s piety, and a desire for something more than marriage. When accusations of witchcraft are leveled against her, Eliza is exiled from her village. Banishment is a sentence crueler than hanging: winter approaches, and with it certain starvation. Her father’s final gift to Eliza is a poison to make her death painless… or so she thinks.

Instead, Eliza awakens in a van, surrounded by girls wearing strange clothes. They are being transported to Bellumfort Institute to provide emotional input for virtual reality simulations. Each girl was raised in a community equipped with historically accurate technology and medicine. Eliza is shattered by the realization that the suffering of her village is intentional. When Aulisyn arrives on Bellumfort, she shows Eliza that her Medieval experience is a weapon more powerful than sorcery.

Aulisyn is a dual-timeline novel. It alternates between the Middle Ages and a near-future Earth. Descend into mesmerizing psychological suspense with a heroine who is more than what she seems…
