She Dies at Dawn

By: Rouen, Roxane de

This limited deluxe edition is printed with gorgeous edges and stunning foil on the case

A romantasy set in an Ancient Greece-inspired world full of assassinations, whispers of rebellion, and a reluctant alliance between a Deathless thief and a hunted prince.

She has eleven lives. He might cost her every one.

Whipsmart has spent a lot of time dying. She is the last of the Deathless, a people with eleven lives who were massacred by the emperor years ago. Her family gone, she has grown up surviving as a thief. When Whip wakes up on her sixth life with a legendary blade in her hand and the emperor dead next to her, she's sentenced to hang--even though she's fairly sure she didn't kill him.

The emperor's sixth son, the vain, spoiled, and supremely unserious Leto, is fighting his own battles. With three of his brothers recently assassinated, and someone trying to frame him for the murders, he fears he might be the next victim. Though Leto suspects Whip couldn't have killed his father, she is such a perfect scapegoat that he calls for her death anyway.

But when Whip turns up alive after her hanging, she and Leto form an uneasy alliance to find the murderer and stop a coup. So long as neither betrays the other first. While the death toll mounts and Whip's remaining lives dwindle, sparks unexpectedly fly between the two former enemies. As their feelings become undeniable, they must uncover who killed the emperor before they wind up dead themselves.
