Princes and Pawns - All the Queen's Knaves, #4 - E-book - ePub

Magical gifts come at a steep cost, and no one knows better than Sorra just how expensive they can be. Sorra's four older sisters carry their family's blessing-beauty, talent, and the promise of shining destinies that will benefit all of Andonia. But as the fifth child, one whose birth the blessing warned against, Sorra is doomed to fortunes that mirror theirs, bringing harm and grief to every life she touches. When her dark blessing leads to accusations of murder, Sorra grabs onto a glimmer of forbidden hope-the enchanted arrow that's meant to lead her older sisters to their happy endings. The arrow offers her a path away from the hangman's noose, but also to a magical stranger who she's certain isn't the benevolent rescuer he seems.
When the truth behind his carefully guarded secrets sets her off on an extraordinary journey, Sorra hopes to become the hero she was never meant to be. She has no choice but to try. If she can't escape her blessing, her greatest destiny might be to destroy everything she's ever loved.
