Nasira Akhil is a Witch. After being spared from death by burning at the stake for being one, she is swept up into the life of the royal court. The crown princess comes to consider her a sister and the first prince sees her as a friend, but the schemes of the caliph pits the two siblings against each other. Caught in a web of inheritance, thrones, and crowns, Nasira struggles to protect her allies and free her people from a complete genocide that inches closer with every passing day.
