Book 1: Beneath the Swirling Sky

Enter a universe where art is a portal to a new world, with adventure and danger lurking in every canvas.

Now, Vincent must rescue Lili and learn the truth about his calling.

Book 2: Between Flowers and Bones

Georgia and her cousin are both training to become Restorationists, but Vincent’s flashier Gift outshines hers. Then Vincent willingly steps into the heart of danger, and Georgia’s parents go missing. Has Georgia got what it takes to rescue her family and the art world and save the ancient society of Restorationists from falling apart for good?
