Wilhelmina has a hundred enemies. HER FRIENDS HAVE TURNED. After her identity is revealed during the Inundation Princess Wilhelmina is kept prisoner by the Indigo Kingdom with the Ospreys lost somewhere in the devastated city. When the Ospreys’ leader emerges at the worst possible moment leaving Wil’s biggest ally on his deathbed she must become Black Knife to set things right. HER MAGIC IS UNCONTROLLABLE. Wil’s power is to animate not to give true life but in the wraithland she commanded a cloud of wraith mist to save herself and later ordered it solid. Now there is a living boy made of wraith—destructive and deadly and willing to do anything for her. HER HEART IS TORN. Though she’s ready for her crown declaring herself queen means war. Caught between what she wants and what is right Wilhelmina realizes the throne might not even matter. Everyone thought the wraith was years off but already it’s destroying Indigo Kingdom villages. If she can’t protect both kingdoms soon there won’t be a land to rule. In this stunning conclusion to THE ORPHAN QUEEN Jodi Meadows follows Wilhelmina’s breathtaking and brave journey from orphaned criminal on the streets to magic-wielding queen.
