A lush tapestry of magic, romance, and revolución, drawing inspiration from Bolivian politics and history.
There could be a way to overthrow the usurper without starting another war, but only if Ximena turns her back on revenge--and her Condesa..
But when a masked vigilante, a warm-hearted princesa, and a thoughtful healer challenge Ximena, her mission becomes more complicated.
She hunts for the relic, using her weaving ability to hide messages in tapestries for the resistance.
If Ximena can find it, she can return the true aristócrata to their rightful place.
She relishes the chance, as Illustrian spies have reported that Atoc\'s no longer carrying his deadly relic.
When Atoc demands the real Condesa\'s hand in marriage, it\'s Ximena\'s duty to go in her stead.
Now Ximena\'s motivated by her insatiable thirst for revenge, and her rare ability to spin thread from moonlight.
Her people lost everything when the usurper, Atoc, used an ancient relic to summon ghosts and drive the Illustrians from La Ciudad. - Rebecca Ross, author of Queen\'s Rising Ximena is the decoy Condesa, a stand-in for the last remaining Illustrian royal. - Adrienne Young, NYT bestselling author of Sky in the Deep A spellbinding, vivid debut. - Shelby Mahurin, NYT bestselling author of Serpent & Dove A wholly unique book for the YA shelf. - Margaret Rogerson, NYT bestselling author of An Enchantment of Ravens Pure magic.
A vibrant feast of a book.
