Born to a beautiful, popular mother who dies giving birth to her and blamed for this loss by her adult brother, Kitara is an unlikely player in the great games of the One Land. In the salt-cracked fief of Goset, she is a noblewoman in name only-denied a dowry, begrudged even her bread, and left to run wild among the fishing boats. But while her peers learn to paint, sing, play music, and flirt, Kitara finds a different education: she becomes a fisher girl with a survival instinct as sharp as a gutting knife.
From the age of ten, Kitara's life becomes a desperate scramble for stability. Thrust into the role of a governess for boisterous lords, and later a lady-in-waiting in the cutthroat Great Stony Keep in the capital, she navigates a world that demands she be betrothed before her first blood. From glittering reception halls to the dungeons beneath the castle, Kitara endures poverty, assault, and betrayal, wielding her intellect like a blade to carve out each small victory. She sees one truth as central in her world: the only armor for a woman is matrimony.
When fate finally flings open the door of opportunity, Kitara seizes it with both hands. But as she ascends to the heights of power, the Lady of Six Coppers discovers that the throne she built is made of glass. In her long fight to survive, she has built many protective layers and worn many masks. Her authentic self is buried so deep that even she cannot be sure that it still exists.
In this sweeping tale of medieval intrigue, Kitara learns that the highest price of power isn't paid in coin-it's paid in the ability to love.
