For centuries, secret societies have operated in the shadows of public life. Some were born from the pursuit of knowledge. Others from the desire for power, protection, or change.

This book is not a gentle recollection of childhood. It does not soften the edges of suffering or pretend that pain can be neatly wrapped in lessons learned. It speaks of wounds that never quite closed, of ghosts that still linger in the corners of memory, of survival that does not always look like victory.
