House of the beast : a novel / Michelle Wong.
Born out of wedlock and shunned by society, Alma learned to make her peace with solitude, so long as she had her mother by her side. When her mother becomes gravely ill, Alma discovers that her estranged father is a bastard of House Avera, one of the four noble families that serve the gods and are imbued with their powers, and her father is a vessel of the Dread Beast, the most frightening god of all, a harbinger of death. In a desperate exchange for her mother's medicine, Alma agrees to sacrifice her left arm to the Beast in a ceremony that will bind her forever to the House and its deity. Regardless, her mother soon passes, leaving Alma trapped inside the Avera's grand estate. Seeking vengeance, Alma accepts help from a mysterious, princely eldritch being to destroy the House that stole everything from her.
