The Architect of Stolen Crowns (THE ASHEN THRONE CHRONICLES, #2) (eBook)

She was sent to silence a threat. She found a truth that could burn the empire down.

Mira Ashvane has spent eight years as the Crown's most effective operative. She doesn't fight revolutions ? she stops them before they start. A well-placed word, a manufactured scandal, a carefully engineered disappearance. Clean, efficient, necessary.

Her newest target: Theron Val, a cartographer who allegedly found documents proving the Hollow Crown's lineage is a fabrication.

Her mission: locate, evaluate, and neutralize.

What she finds is a man who didn't even know what he'd found ? a quiet, careful cartographer sitting on genealogical records that would unravel the entire royal succession. He doesn't want a throne. He wants to finish his map and go home.

But the records are real. The Crown is a lie. And now Mira knows it too.

Running from both the Conclave and the operatives sent to finish her mission when she doesn't, Mira and Theron must forge an alliance built on the most dangerous foundation imaginable: the truth.

For fans of From Blood and Ash, The Jasad Heir, and A Little Hatred. The Architect of Stolen Crowns is a pulse-pounding dark romantasy of forbidden alliances, collapsed loyalties, and the impossible cost of choosing what is real over what is safe.
