About this listen

A murder and a masquerade.

Brianna loves her new job as maid to Lady Marguerite. Like many high nobles, Marguerite is attended by echoes, silent creatures who look exactly like her and move in perfect synchronicity. News soon comes that Marguerite has been invited to the royal city as a potential bride for the crown prince. Brianna is delighted to accompany Marguerite to the city - and perhaps get a chance to continue her own flirtation with Nico, one of the king’s inquisitors.

Then, disaster strikes on the road when they come under attack. The brutal assault forces Marguerite and Brianna to concoct a desperate plan. Their subterfuge just might work - but only if Brianna can keep Nico from learning the truth. And only if Marguerite can give up her own secret, doomed romance.

And all that's at stake - is the very future of the kingdom.

There is no HEA - I found some of the events upsetting and the monarchy to be tyrannical and unjust. But the story is well thought out and the novel certainly delivers a dramatic punch.

Dramatic and distressing

Really enjoyed this. Good world-building and the undercover element appealed to me. The narration made it less enjoyable - the main character is tough and strong so this bleating, querulous, melodramatic tone really doesn't suit her.

Another good one by Sharon Shinn
