About the book
A hidden power. A deadly legacy. A girl caught between magic and survival.
Felicia, half-sister to Lizbeth Rose, lives in the capital of the Holy Russian Empire, a student at the Grigori Rasputin School—but to most, she’s a charity case with no magic. Her only value? The blood transfusions that keep Tsar Alexei alive. Treated as a nonentity at court and an outcast at school, Felicia never expected to be noticed—until she’s kidnapped.
Now, the truth about her heritage is surfacing, and Felicia is more than just Rasputin’s granddaughter. As enemies close in from all sides, she must uncover the depths of her own power before it’s too late.
