Their father lost a kingdom. His daughters will claim an empire. But first, they must survive.
Sisters Harika and Emine grew up draped in silk, until an Imperial Edict arrives and sentences every man in their clan to death and every woman to slavery. Their home becomes a pyre and their names become property.
But the sisters refuse to break.
Harika fights with her voice, her needle, and her ability to read a room. Emine wields her photographic memory like a weapon.
Together, they navigate court politics, false friends, oppressive nobles, and soldiers who see them as spoils of war. So long as they have each other, they can win.
Inside the palace, the Emperor who signed their family's destruction is within reach.
Slaves can go where assassins cannot.
All the sisters have to do is stay alive, stay useful, and wait.
When the time arrives, the sisters must decide what they are willing to become—and who they are willing to save.
Daughters of a Fallen King is the first book of The Slave Monarch, an adult fantasy of palace intrigue, sisterhood, survival, and revenge.
