Selina Rose leads a normal life as a princess: attending balls, tending to her garden, and going to school. But soon enough things start to fall apart.
Nothing makes sense in this princess's castle: the walls seem to hear secrets, the library seems to talk, and her family does not seem to be quite normal after all.
Selina and her older sister Alyssa untangle the mysteries that lie behind their own history, as well as the land that they rule.
Hidden and twisted between lies beyond repairing, these sisters use all their wits to crack the case.
