When Neverfell, who has no memory, arrives in Caverna, her facial expressions make her very dangerous to the people who live with blank faces or pay dearly to learn to simulate emotions.
In the underground city of Caverna, craftsmen create wines that remove memories, cheeses that make you hallucinate, and perfumes that convince you to trust the wearer, even as they slit your throat. The people of Caverna have faces as blank as untouched snow; only the Facesmiths can teach a person to express (or fake) emotions. Into this world comes Neverfell, a girl with no memory of her past and a face so terrifying to those around her that she must wear a mask at all times. Her emotions are entirely genuine... and that makes her very dangerous....
