An ambitious young woman with the power to control minds seeks
vengeance against the royals who murdered her family, in a
Caribbean-inspired fantasy world embattled by colonial oppression.
Sigourney Rose is the only surviving daughter of a noble lineage on
the islands of Hans Lollik. When she was a child, her family was
murdered by the islands' colonisers, who have massacred and
enslaved generations of her people - and now, Sigourney is ready to
exact her revenge. When the childless king of the islands declares
that he will choose his successor from amongst eligible noble
families, Sigourney uses her ability to read and control minds to
manipulate her way onto the royal island and into the ranks of the
ruling colonisers. But when she arrives, prepared to fight for
control of all the islands, Sigourney finds herself the target of a
dangerous, unknown magic. Someone is killing off the ruling
families to clear a path to the throne. As the bodies pile up and
all eyes regard her with suspicion, Sigourney must find allies
among her prey and the murderer among her peers... lest she become
the next victim. Queen of the Conquered reckons with the many
layers of power and privilege in a lush fantasy world -- perfect
for readers of S. A. Chakraborty, Ken Liu, and Tasha Suri.
