Princess Eloise grew up in a poor, spiritless kingdom under the reign of her step father. She knows that once, Rokenmeine was a beautiful place: abundant, rich, and always full of music. She wants to become queen so that she can restore it to what it once was, but there are deeper things than poverty tearing at the kingdom. She wonders if her mother, who is said to have died in her sleep, was actually murdered. Despair is rooted in the land; a rebellion is taking seed deep in the forest. And perhaps most pressing of all, the copy of the law that dictates when Eloise can inherit the throne is missing, shamelessly torn out of the record book.

This is a story about uprising and despair, and about mystery slinking through broken people's lives... but it's also simply the journey of a lonely girl searching for a family.

Thanks to my friend Barbara for making the cover for me!
