Publisher's Synopsis
She had everything before her: the crown, the prince, the life of luxury. Too bad all it takes is just one second to lose everything's she's ever known. Now she has to earn it all back in a world of lies at the Queen's court, being careful at every step or she may just lose her head. But the Queen isn't the only one with tricks up her sleeves...
The kingdoms of Dimalia and Shareen have been at war as long as Princess Naya can remember, which is why she has been given the task of uniting them. Seeing it as a chance to escape her own father's tyrannical ruling, she sets out to meet her future husband only to be attacked by a mysterious group of soldiers. As she flees, she begins to question the loyalties she's always had, and the loyalties about to be forged. Thrust into a court of human chess, she realizes she can either be dragged along like a pawn or step up and claim the kingdom for herself.
Inspired by the allegorical elements of Ted Dekker's The Circle series and the world of Narnia, this twist-filled coming of age story will encourage your faith and keep you guessing.
