NAMED ONE OF THE BESTBOOKS OF 2021 BYPUBLISHERS WEEKLY,LIBRARY JOURNAL,BOOKLIST, AND THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY

A ruthless princess and a powerful priestess come together to rewrite the fate of an empire in this fiercely and unapologetically feminist tale of endurance and revolution set against a gorgeous, unique magical world (S. A. Chakraborty, author of theThe City of Brass).

Exiled by her despotic brother, princess Malini spends her days dreaming of vengeance while imprisoned in the Hirana:an ancient cliffside temple that was once the revered source of the magical deathless waters but is now little more than a decaying ruin.

The secrets of the Hirana call to Priya. But in order to keep the truth of her past safely hidden, she works as a servant in the loathed regents household, biting her tongue and cleaning Malinis chambers.

But when Malini witnesses Priyas true nature, their destinies become irrevocably tangled. One is a ruthless princess seeking to steal a throne. The other apowerful priestess desperate to save her family. Together, they will set an empire ablaze.
