A stunning blend of vivid fantasy and political drama, The Vanished
Queen is the timely story of a young resistance fighter working to
overthrow a totalitarian ruler's regime of terror and lies.
"[G]ripping...this is the novel the world needs now" (Kate
Heartfield, Nebula Award finalist and author of Aurora
Award-winning novel Armed in Her Fashion). Long ago, Queen Mirantha
vanished. King Karolje claimed she was assassinated by a
neighboring ruler, but her people knew the truth: the king had
Disappeared her himself. Now the queen's disappearance is hardly a
memory-merely one among many horrors the king's reign has wrought.
But when Anza, a young student impassioned by her father's unjust
execution, finds the missing queen's diary, she is inspired by
Mirantha's words-joins the resistance group to overthrow the king.
Prince Esvar is the second son to an evil king. Trapped under his
thumb and desperate for a way out, a chance meeting with Anza gives
him the opportunity to join the resistance. Together, they might
have the leverage to move against the king-but if they fail, their
deaths could mean a total loss of freedom for generations to
follow. In this dangerous game of court politics, one misstep could
lead to a fate worse than death. Set in a world where resistance is
as dangerous as it is important, The Vanished Queen is a "big,
dark, intricate novel" (Lousia Morgan, author of A Secret History
of Witches) about the courage and sacrifice it requires to take on
a tyrant.
