Lyra Voss has spent twenty-two years disguised as Prince Lorian, a disposable male heir created by King Halmar to hide her true bloodline. When she is traded to the dangerous Varkhyn Dominion to recover the real crown prince, she expects captivity—not the attention of High Sovereign Zareth Kharon. As beast nobles test her body, identity, and loyalty, Lyra uncovers evidence that Halmar murdered her father and erased her claim to the throne. She abandons the false prince, survives betrayal and torture, joins forces with Zareth, returns with a beast army, and fights through the royal court to reclaim her name, her inheritance, and the crown as Queen Lyra Voss.
