Hundreds of missing people. 

A long-lost legendary artifact. 

A desperate race to find it first.

The Reaper’s Lyre is the continent’s last hope to stop the Portal Plague that’s been kidnapping people for years. Or, it could destroy the five kingdoms with little more than a thought, depending on who finds it first. 

A secret network of princesses leads the investigation to save the continent. They work covertly to solve mysteries and protect the kingdoms.

A notorious serial killer called the Butcher leads the band of outlaws that would destroy and remake the continent in their image.

Both sides are desperate to possess the Lyre. And desperate people will cross any line. 

Featuring a diverse ensemble cast of characters struggling with grief and coming-of-age themes, fans of IRON WIDOW by Xiran Jay Zhao and GIDEON THE NINTH by Tamsyn Muir won’t be able to put it down.
