The second book in the Antarctic Empire Trilogy Sally Lachs had never been a noble. She wasn't considered rich or royal or anything of the sort. She was a humble girl who lived in a small house with her mom. She was smart, loved learning new things and going to school, and she worked hard. She never understood the politics of the Royal life. Every marriage had to be for political gain, every birth rejoiced and recorded. The children were raised a particular way, and they behaved a certain way. She never believed she would see a glimpse of that life.
