In the city of Al-Qarim, truth is dangerous-and those who speak it are erased.

Senior Cataloguer Yusra uncovers ghost-text in ancient manuscripts: faint impressions of words violently scraped away. Her discovery reveals a centuries-long conspiracy by the Chronicle House, which has been deleting citizens who testify against the ruling Council-not just from records, but from memory itself.

Her mentor vanished. No one remembers him. But golden letters begin appearing on her walls, and Yusra realizes the erased are not dead. They dwell in the Margins-the liminal space between what's written and what's real. And they are organizing.

As the erased prepare to testify en masse, the Sultan races to silence them, harvesting their souls into a weapon that can rewrite memory itself. Yusra must choose: stay silent and survive, or risk becoming another ghost in the margins.

THE INK BETWEEN is a haunting tale of resistance, remembrance, and the power of testimony-perfect for readers of Babel, The City of Brass, and The Poppy War.
