About this audiobook
Two men share one face. Only one of them was ever meant to be king.
To bring a kidnapped princess home without setting four kingdoms ablaze, a shadow-trained assassin walks into the enemy's court wearing the crown prince's face — straight back into the castle where, as a boy, his own father tried to have him killed. The real prince, meanwhile, vanishes into a warm southern house that has no notion it's sheltering a king.
Inside those walls: a furious princess who sees through him in a heartbeat, a sharp-tongued woman who sees him far too clearly, and a throne that keeps drifting toward the one head that never wanted it.
Some prices are paid in blood. Some in the face you agree to wear. And a crown, it turns out, goes to whoever's brave — or foolish — enough to choose it.
