Serina a Nomi sú sestry z priemyselného mesta Lanos — Serina bola vychovávaná ako následníčka Grace, Nomi sa tajne naučila čítať a namiesto nej je vybraná do paláca, no Serina vezme vinu na seba a je odvlečená do väzenia.
Autorka používa príbeh na tému utláčania žien a ženského posilnenia, dej je inšpirovaný Talianskom a Havajom a kladie dôraz na sesterský vzťah skôr než na romantiku.
Kniha sa spočiatku rozbieha pomaly, ale neskôr je veľmi napínavá; odporúčam ju fanúšikom Červenej kráľovnej a Selekcie a hodnotím ju 9,7/10.

In a world where women have no rights, sisters Serina and Nomi Tessaro face two very different fates: one in the palace, the other in prison.
Serina has been groomed her whole life to become a Grace - someone to stand by the heir to the throne as a shining, subjugated example of the perfect woman. But when her headstrong and rebellious younger sister, Nomi, catches the heir's eye, it's Serina who takes the fall for the dangerous secret that Nomi has been hiding.
Now trapped in a life she never wanted, Nomi has only one way to save Serina: surrender to her role as a Grace until she can use her position to release her sister. This is easier said than done. A traitor walks the halls of the palace, and deception lurks in every corner. But Serina is running out of time, imprisoned on an island where she must fight to the death to survive and one wrong move could cost her everything.
