The Wrong daughter
book 1 of The Heresy of Isa Harred
The Heresy of Isa Harred is a speculative series about identity, control, memory, inherited power, and what happens when the truth becomes more dangerous than the lie.
At its center is Isa Harred—a woman raised to know exactly who she is, in a world very invested in keeping it that way.
Book One: The Wrong Daughter follows Isa as the perfect life she was raised to inherit begins to crack. One act of disobedience leaves her with a different face, missing memories, and the uncomfortable realization that everyone around her seems to know something she doesn’t.
She wanted the truth.
She should have been more specific.
“E.s. Mercer is one poignantly detailed and expressive author.”

E.S. MERCER
E.S. Mercer, aka Eva Mercer, is a novelist, lyricist, and visual artist drawn to stories about memory, identity, power, and the fragile places where love and control collide. Her work often explores what happens when truth is buried, rewritten, or stolen — and what it takes to reclaim it.
When We Were Mortals was her first novel and marked the beginning of a larger body of work that blends speculative worlds with deeply human emotion. She is currently working on her second novel, the first installment of a dystopian speculative series titled The Wrong Daughter, Book 1 of The Heresy of Isa Harred, which continues her exploration of identity, resistance, and the cost of remembering.
When she isn’t writing, she creates conceptual photography centered on transformation, resilience, and self-expression. Across all of her work, she believes in telling the stories that refuse to stay buried.
