The land of Quadara has been ruled by four queens for generations. Keralie, 17, is just a trickster and a thief living on the fringes near the capitol. When her boss, Mackiel goads her into stealing from a messenger, she doesn’t realize she is plunging herself into treachery that may see all four queens dead.
High fantasy lovers will have a great time riding this wave of tension and emotion.
