History, reversed.
History remembers who was taken. Trevannock asks what if it had been the other way round.
In 1782 the African Adunbi Imperium runs the transatlantic slave trade against Europe. The ledgers are opened, the auctions begin, and Europeans are the ones renamed and sold across an empire that calls it order. Through the people caught inside that machinery, the owned and the owners, the familiar architecture of slavery is turned inside out until it becomes impossible to look away from.
This isn't a revenge fantasy. It's an attempt to make a familiar horror feel new, to understand it by standing somewhere we've never stood. Book One of the Crossing-kin series.
