Imagine
a
place
where
the
dead
rest
on
shelves
like
books.
Each
body
has
a
story
to
tell,
a
life
seen
in
pictures
only
Librarians
can
read.
The
dead
are
called
Histories,
and
the
vast
realm
in
which
they
rest
is
the
Archive.
Mackenzie
Bishop's
grandfather
first
brought
her
here
four
years
ago,
when
she
was
twelve
years
old,
frightened
but
determined
to
prove
herself.
Now
her
grandfather
is
dead,
and
Mac
has
grown
into
what
he
once
was:
a
ruthless
Keeper,
tasked
with
stopping
often
violent
Histories
from
waking
up
and
getting
out.
Because
of
her
job,
she
lies
to
the
people
she
loves,
and
she
knows
fear
for
what
it
is:
a
useful
tool
for
staying
alive.
Follow
Mackenzie
as
she
explores
the
boundary
between
living
and
dying,
sleeping
and
waking,
through
these
two
timeless
novels,
now
bound
together
in
this
thrilling
collection.
With
stunning
prose
and
a
captivating
mixture
of
action,
romance,
and
horror,The
Dark
Vaultdelves
into
a
richly
imagined
world
where
no
choice
is
easy
and
love
and
loss
feel
like
two
sides
of
the
same
coin.
