The bestselling Rebel of the Sands author is back with a glittering fantasy thriller duology, featuring a family obsessed with money, power, fame – and magic.

SIGNED BY AUTHOR WITH EXCLUSIVE PRINTED EDGES

At sixteen, Honora ‘Nora’ Holtzfall is the daughter of the most powerful heiress in Gammanix; her family controls all the money – and all the magic – in the entire country. But when her mother is found murdered in an alley, the family throne and fortune are up for grabs, which means Nora will be pitted against her cousins in the deadly Veritaz trials to determine who is the rightful inheritor.

And then there’s a surprise rival in the form of Ottoline, aka Lotte, the illegitimate daughter of Nora’s aunt, who was left with nuns as a baby. Thrown into the Veritaz, Lotte is suddenly surrounded by a hostile family she never knew she had.

As the Holtzfalls wage their battles of privilege, something bigger and more sinister bubbles beneath the surface. Revolution is in the air.

Incredible tests, impossible choices, and deadly odds await both girls. But there can only be one winner.
