The Knight and the Moth

2025

by Rachel Gillig

From BookTok sensation and NYT bestselling author Rachel Gillig, comes the next big romantasy phenomenon: a gothic, mist-cloaked tale of a prophetess who is forced beyond the safety of her cloister on an impossible quest to defeat the gods with the one knight whose future is beyond her sight.


Sybil Delling has spent nine years dreaming of having no dreams at all. Like the other foundling girls who traded a decade of service for a home in the great cathedral, Sybil is a Diviner. In her dreams, she receives visions from six unearthly figures known as Omens. From them, she can predict terrible things before they occur, and lords and common folk alike travel across the kingdom of Traum's windswept moors to learn their futures by her dreams.


Just as she and her sister Diviners near the end of their service, a mysterious knight arrives at the cathedral. Rude, heretical, and devilishly handsome, the knight Rodrick has no respect for Sybil's visions. But when Sybil's fellow Diviners begin to vanish one by one, she has no choice but to seek his help in finding them. For the world outside the cathedral's cloister is wrought with peril. Only the gods have the answers she is seeking, and as much as she'd rather avoid Rodrick's dark eyes and sharp tongue, only a heretic can defeat a god.

The Manor of Dreams is a haunting novel that delves deep into the secrets hidden within a crumbling mansion once owned by a former Hollywood starlet. This thrilling tale weaves the intertwined fates of two Chinese American families vying to inherit the estate, amidst whispers of long-buried truths.

"They say what you don’t know can’t hurt you. But silence can be deadly."

Vivian Yin, the first Chinese actress to win an Oscar, rose to fame in the eighties but chose to live out her later years in seclusion. After her death, her family gathers for the reading of her will, expecting to inherit her sprawling Southern California garden estate. However, due to an unexpected change in the will, the house is left to another family, returning after decades of estrangement.

In a bid to claim their inheritance, both families move into the mansion, where they are soon confronted by grief, paranoia, and a more sinister, vengeful presence than they could have imagined. Will they uncover the painful truth about the last summer they spent in the house, or will their secrets remain buried forever?

Told in dual timelines and spanning three generations, The Manor of Dreams is brimming with romance, betrayal, ambition, and sacrifice. This gothic family drama explores the true cost of the American dream and the decay that can set in when roots are neglected.
