Notes

Novel for young adults.
Feisty heroine Risha becomes the rightful heir to her mother's kingdom, but is caught between two
armies and her own tangled allegiances. Risha travels to Havre, where she finds a stifling world of
court gossip and intrigue, and an entrenched resistance to her involvement in the Duchy's politics.
Missing the freedoms of her former home of LeMarc, she embarks on a tour of western Havre with her
mother's cousin, Ciaran, and the Havrean Captain, Nolan. The party is ambushed, revealing the
existence, if not the identity, of a traitor in the city.
