Description

On the night her kingdom falls and the royal family faces execution, Clarisse expects death. Instead, she receives an unexpected reprieve: she cannot be executed until she turns eighteen. The Grand Duke grants her ten years to live, then sends her north as a prisoner. Before leaving, Clarisse makes a single request—to bring her only friend along. The catch: her friend is a rock. As Clarisse settles into her life as a prisoner in the North, her circumstances begin to shift in unexpected directions.
