Description
In this New York Times bestselling debut, Rachel Hartman weaves a richly imagined alternative-medieval world where mathematical dragons have learned to walk among humans, attending court as ambassadors and scholars. When a member of the royal family is murdered under suspicious circumstances just as a crucial peace treaty approaches its anniversary, gifted musician Seraphina Dombegh finds herself drawn into a dangerous investigation alongside the perceptive Prince Lucian Kiggs. As they uncover hints of a sinister plot threatening to shatter four decades of fragile peace, Seraphina must navigate the treacherous politics of both human and dragon courts while guarding a devastating secret—one that could cost her everything if revealed. Blending intricate worldbuilding, compelling mystery, and deeply personal stakes, Hartman's Morris Award-winning novel explores themes of identity, belonging, and the power of music to bridge seemingly unbridgeable divides.
