Tarisai was raised by a mysterious mother known only as The Lady. The Lady sends her to the capital of the global empire of Aritsar to compete with other children to be chosen as one of the Crown Prince's Council of 11. Irresistible to Tarisai, she has always wanted to belong. But The Lady has other ideas, including a magical wish that Tarisai is compelled to obey: Kill the Crown Prince. 13+ Only one thing is more powerful than a wish, and that is a purpose.
