What to expect

The Order of Masks is the first in a seductive, glittering fantasy duology, as two ambitious young women navigate deadly court politics, determined to improve their lives - no matter the sacrifice.

Circus performer Mira has spent her life on the run. She is determined to secure her future by competing in the deadly Trials and winning a place in one of the three magical royal Orders.

Princess Scarlett is fighting to withstand her half-brothers' sinister ambitions and seize power. Mira is the opportunity she's been waiting for - a dangerous outsider poised to cleave apart the foundations of the Court.

As Mira and Scarlett navigate a glittering world of magic, intrigue and forbidden romance, they must decide if they are co-conspirators or rivals in a bloody bid for the throne. Will they sacrifice everything - even their own lovers - for power and revenge?

Only one thing is certain: not everyone will survive.

Critics Review

From page one, The Order of Masks grabbed me by the throat and never let go. Shocking. Unpredictable. Devastating. Characters you can never trust but desperately want to. A glittering dagger of a book that cuts as much as it awes
Natalie Mae, author of The Kinder Poison trilogy
A high-stakes, richly layered adventure filled with covert missions and moonlit trysts - this debut is as seductive and dangerous as the Ravalian Court where the story takes place.
Lyndall Clipstone, author of Lakesedge and Tenderly, I am Devoured
Treacherous and alluring, The Order of Masks duology will keep you balanced on the fine edge of a blade until the very end.
Braidee Otto, author of the Myths of Empyrieos trilogy
Deliciously tempting and an absolute gem of a read.
