[Sequal to the hit Wattys 2022 Shortlisted Novel!] The Crown Assassins, the world's most ruthless leaders, have a reputation that precedes them. But perhaps there's more to them than meets the eye. After being almost killed and having their secrets spilled to the world, they're ready to right their wrongs. Their only hope is the real Arielle Fortier, now known on the streets as Phoenix Night. Indigo Fluor, the girl who almost tore the Crowns lives apart for an undeserving friend, is back. She's ready to destroy their power and bring them down, brick by brick. But this time she must enlist the help of a girl with a smile too sweet and a boy with a mind to cunning. Can she trust either of them? Phoenix Night ran away from the throne for a reason and she had no plans to go back. She was a thief and a thief only. No amount of begging from her younger sister, brewing trouble, or regret will ever change her mind. But, with a large rebellion looming and even larger conspiracy climbing out of the shadows, there's one last play that can avoid all out war. Hopefully. It's time for the Queen to claim her crown.

As one of the lower members of the Court, Indigo Fluor is stuck in the prestigious Evandor Prep where Assassins, including the Crowns, learn to be the ruthless leaders their parents were. But, after her best friend was found dead and the Crowns were the only possible culprits, she was ready to take action. She would climb up the ranks and dismantle the throne in the name of revenge and justice. And she would start with all those at Evandor Prep. But then the bodies start to appear.
