Release – The Name of the Helper

An impossible task, three nights, and a monster…

…there’s more to the story than straw into gold.

Arista needs magic.


Imprisoned in the king’s dungeon, she’ll be executed by morning—unless she can spin everyday wheat into precious metal.

An impossible task! That her father, in order to hide his own thievery, swore she could perform.

Arista can change wheat… into flour. But to survive past sunrise, her only hope is the help of a mysterious imp. An imp who requires payment for his efforts, or for her to conjure his name.

Each night, the king’s demands increase, as do those of her otherworldly helper. But when the nameless imp demands the unthinkable—her firstborn child—will Arista die at the sun’s first light? Or will she finally discover the Name of her Helper?
