The Executioner's Assistant

By Virginia Kouba

In the kingdom of Gemini, magic is outlawed and one wrong word means death. As assistant to the royal executioner, Daria Loque injects rebels, neighbors, and even family with a numbing serum before the guillotine falls. Kidnapped by rebels after a beheading went awry, Daria's unshakable facade begins to crack. Faced with a giant whose relentless kindness and constant cheeriness refuse to fit the terrifying tales she was raised on, Daria must decide whether to continue being an emotionless tool of a ruthless kingdom or risk everything to repay a debt that could cost her life.
