Overview

When the monster wears a crown, who becomes the hero? In the kingdom of Doane, curfew is law and curiosity is dangerous. On the one night Lonnie Lovingdove breaks the rules, she discovers something far worse than she bargained for: the king is feeding his people human flesh. Caught spying in the royal castle, Lonnie barely escapes with her life. But fleeing the kingdom only trades one nightmare for another-a doomsday cult, an unpredictable chaos witch, and thirty battle-worn soldiers with nothing left to lose. They're only hope is to assassinate the cannibal king, and somehow Lonnie becomes the one they expect to wield the knife. Under the relentless pursuit of the king's army and the weight of impossible expectations, Lonnie must navigate a world of zealots, magic, and desperate men who see her as their savior. She's reckless, she's in over her head, and everyone who gets close to her seems to end up dead. Can an unlucky girl with a talent for disaster actually kill a king and end a war-or will her curse claim everyone who dares to follow her?
