Description
In a kingdom where power is inherited through blood and beauty is treated like currency, a young girl’s life is upended when she’s drawn into a dangerous system of privilege and control. As she navigates betrayal, loyalty, and the cost of survival, she must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice to protect the people she loves. Blending high-stakes adventure with sharp emotional stakes, this story explores themes of identity, freedom, and the ways oppressive structures shape both the powerful and the powerless. With Namina Forna’s vivid worldbuilding and propulsive, character-driven storytelling, the novel delivers a gripping, coming-of-age journey that challenges what it means to be “chosen.”
