📚 WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT

A princess forced into exile discovers she is the last of her kind after her family's massacre.

Tory wants nothing to do with being royalty. She prefers the quiet life of a troubadour. Her family's violent death ends that dream. She must flee to stay alive. During her escape, she meets allies and enemies. Trust becomes complicated. Love appears unexpectedly. Betrayal cuts deep. The core conflict shifts from avoiding duty to accepting a terrifying heritage. Engel uses this arc to explore what it means to inherit power one did not ask for. The story does not offer easy answers. It presents a harsh world where survival requires embracing a monstrous truth. The prose remains focused on Tory's internal shift from resistance to realization.
