By Sarah Raughley
The year is 1862, and murderous desires are simmering in England. Sarah Forbes Bonetta (Sally), once a princess of the Egbado Clan, desires one thing above all else: revenge against the British Crown and its system of colonial “humanitarianism,” which stole her dignity and transformed her into royal property.
From military men to political leaders, she’s vowed to ruin all who’ve had a hand in her afflictions. The top of her list? Her godmother, Britain’s mighty monarch, Queen Victoria.
Taking down the Crown means entering into a twisted game of court politics—even if that entails aligning with a dangerous yet alluring crime lord in London’s underworld and exploiting the affections of Queen Victoria begins to suspect Sally’s true intentions, she plays the only card in Victorian society that could possibly cage Sally again: marriage.
With time running out and her wedding day looming, Sally’s vengeful game of cat and mouse turns deadly as she’s faced with the striking revelation that the price for vengeance isn’t just paid in blood. It means sacrificing your heart.
