DUTY. POLITICS. SPACE PRINCES AND REBELLIOUS ROYALS.

The Iskat Empire dominates its vassal planets through a system of treaties — so when Prince Taam, key figure in a political alliance, is killed, a replacement must be found. His widower, Jainan, is rushed into an arranged marriage with the disreputable aristocrat Kiem, in a bid to keep rising hostilities between two worlds under control.

But Prince Taam's death may not have been an accident, and when Jainan himself is a suspect, he and Kiem must learn to trust one another as they navigate the perils of the Iskat court, try to solve a murder, and prevent an interplanetary war . . . 

Everina Maxwell's debut is a space opera with high-stakes multi-world politics and irresistibly engaging characters, perfect for fans of Gideon the Ninth and The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet.
