Pantheon, from the beginning. Vivienne Ho does not exist. She is the face Circe puts on before seven every morning, in Hong Kong boardrooms where nobody looks at her twice. Then Damien Tang loses a deal to her and decides he wants to see her properly. It is the first book of a trilogy, and it stands alone. Book two is planned for 2027, and the second slide carries a small hint of where the story goes after this one. The fifth slide is what its first readers said: Lupe (@farkas_lupe), Akku (@the_silly_readers) and Georgia (@gothic_book_dragon). Thank you very much once again 🥰🫶🏻✨ The cover, Damien and Vivienne are all painted by Jryona (@jryona_arts) 🖤 The book has a duet too, Somewhere With Nobody In It. I wrote the lyrics. It is on one Spotify playlist, Pantheon, the songs, and every song the series gains will join it. Out now on Kindle and in print.

Hello, I am Lacunae. By day I design worlds and levels for games. At night I write the stories I have carried around for years, the ones that used to live in scribbles and a notebook on my phone. Lacunae means the gaps in a record: the missing pages, the years nobody wrote down. That is where both of my series live. Before any chapter, I map out the whole cast and every route. The fifth slide is the games, stories and anime that shaped all of it. Tell me if we share one.

Perpetūra, from the beginning. Five women across five centuries, each carrying a feeling she has never found the words for. Hyunjae in Joseon Korea, Reine in Belle Époque Paris and Liuyan on the Tang roads open The Ones Before. Lia and Ophelia carry The Origin. Lupe Farkas (@farkas_lupe) gave both books five stars, and the fifth slide carries a little of what she wrote. Both books are out now on Kindle and in print, and they are in Kindle+ too. A third book is planned for 2027, and the third slide carries the first glimpse of it. Every story closes on its own theme song, and I write the lyrics for each one. They are all on one Spotify playlist, Perpetūra, the songs, and every new one will join it. If you would rather choose the path yourself, the stories began as an interactive novel, and it is still free to play in your browser.

A second trailer for Pantheon, out since yesterday 🎬 Circe has spent six years being nobody in particular. Then a house in Geneva publishes half a billion dollars for her body, and five specialists take the work 🖤 The faces in this one are theirs, or as much of them as they will let you have: an eye lit by monitors, a gloved hand, hands on paper, half a face in a mirror, a shoulder going away. None of them is told how many others there are. And beside her, a man who would rather know her than find her. Set to Nobody Measures a Friend from the album 🎶 Available worldwide now, on Kindle, in paperback and in hardcover, and in Kindle+. Chapters 1 to 7 are still free to read on the site.

✨ Happy Release Day ✨ Patheon: Book One by @lacunaedesigns is out now! Available on Amazon, Kindle+, Kindle, Paperback and Hardcover. Grab your copy today!! 🖤 Blurb 🖤 Vivienne Ho does not exist. For five years the most composed woman in any Hong Kong boardroom has been a face Circe puts on by hand before seven each morning, and a life built so completely it became real to the woman wearing it. Circe used to kill for a living, for a private house in Geneva, and she walked away from it six years ago. This is the season the house puts half a billion dollars on her head and every contractor in her old trade starts looking. Damien Tang loses a container terminal to her on a Thursday and wants her by the weekend. His family opens a file on the woman he cannot stop thinking about, and he lets it run. He has money, no training, and no idea what he is buying. The hunters only need to find her. Damien needs to see her, properly, at close range, and being seen is the one thing her craft cannot survive. He is not going to stop. #patheon #lacuneaauthor #happyreleaseday #releaseday #bookstagram by @lacunaedesigns

Happy Halloween 🎃 Tonight everyone wears a face for one evening. Vivienne Ho is the face Circe puts on every morning 🖤 Benny Chow is her co-founder. He brings pastries from the place on Bonham Strand when he has a proposal, he is the one everybody likes, and he runs the front of a firm whose office is an old rice warehouse. She knows to the year when he became her friend, because she was counting, and she has never told him, because telling him would mean explaining why she counts. Not one feeling is named in those two sentences on the card. You get the arithmetic instead and you do the rest yourself 🧮 Damien is the opposite. His chapters say what he wants, out loud. That difference is the whole love story 💌 Tomorrow, it is yours, and a pre-order arrives on your Kindle at midnight 🌙 Link in bio 📖 Which of the two would you trust first? 👇 #pantheonnovel #halloweenreads #spookyseason #bookquotes #bookstagram by @lacunaedesigns
If you are new here ✨ Pantheon is out tomorrow, and this is the whole book in one line from chapter four: “Courting and investigating look identical from the inside and only one of them is survivable.” A romantic conspiracy thriller about a woman who survived being hunted by becoming somebody duller, and a man whose pursuit of her begins as conquest and turns into the most expensive act of trust either of them has ever made 🖤 Sixty-three chapters. One head in each, rotating. Slow burn, and explicit when it gets there, with both halves carrying equal weight. Book one of three, and it stands alone. It ends where it means to. Content notes are on the site and I have not softened them. Chapters 1 to 7 are free, so you can find out for yourself rather than take my word for it. Out tomorrow, 1 November, worldwide on Kindle, in Kindle+, in paperback and in hardcover. Pre-order now and it arrives at midnight 🌙 Link in bio 📖 #pantheonnovel #romanticthriller #slowburn #newrelease #bookstagram by @lacunaedesigns
Tomorrow 🖤🌙 Three things early readers said that I am taking into release day with me: “Vivienne, in particular, is a character I’ll be thinking about long after closing the book.” Lupe Farkas, @farkas_lupe “Vivienne was the highlight of Pantheon for me. She is clever, guarded, and fascinating to follow.” Elsa, on Goodreads “I did enjoy how the story was brought to a close and always enjoy a strong female character.” Jonny, on Goodreads Out 1 November 2026.

Chapter two. Leon has the car at the loading bay instead of the front, because he watched the meeting break up on somebody’s camera and decided the lobby would be full 🖤 Damien has just lost a container terminal to a woman he met that morning. By the time he gets in the car and says her name, Leon has already opened a file on her, and put a man on her building at lunchtime. He did it before he was asked, because he knew he would be. Out 1 November 2026. Chapters 1 to 7 are free to read now, link in bio 📖 #pantheonnovel #romanticthriller #bookquotes #slowburn #bookstagram by @lacunaedesigns
Ten cities, and I am not telling you the order 🗺️ I design worlds for a living, so of course the book has a world map🤣. Hong Kong is home, and the free chapters, 1 to 7, never leave it. Everything else unlocks on 1 November 🔓 Busan, Kaohsiung, Klang, Singapore, Los Angeles, Geneva, Antwerp, Ostend, Galicia. Which one would you travel to first? 👀 Out 1 November 2026.
