The Return by Margot Conor

She crossed the multiverse to find her way home. But she could not reclaim the life she left behind.

Mora's return to Hadot should have been the end of an impossible journey. Instead, she finds that the life she left behind has changed in ways she never imagined.

As she struggles to rebuild fractured relationships and salvage the technology that made interdimensional travel possible, new dangers emerge from every direction. Powerful interests want control of the portals, old loyalties are tested, and every decision carries consequences that reach beyond a single world.

Meanwhile, Zamora must choose where she truly belongs. A stranger in two worlds, she discovers that some paths cannot be retraced, and that the smallest gifts may hold the greatest secrets.

As hope and betrayal collide, Mora and Zamora come to a startling realization:

Returning home was never the end of the journey. It was only the beginning.
