The Queen's Endgame: She took the throne. But the game was never hers to win.

By Vergil McKenzie

A gripping, razor-sharp psychological thriller about legacy, loyalty, and what it takes to stay on the throne.

Power isn't just taken. It has to be held.
Chayne Vargas thought the war ended when her father-Dante Vargas, Manila's most feared kingpin-fell. She thought survival was enough. She was wrong.

Now seated atop the empire she once ran from, Chayne isn't just fighting ghosts-she's fighting everything her father built. But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes: the game never ended. It just changed players.

When a cryptic message and a pawn-shaped chess piece appear, Chayne must face a terrifying truth-
She may never have been the queen. She might still be someone else's move.

Enemies wear familiar faces. Allies demand blood. And betrayal comes wrapped in silk and family smiles.

As power-hungry enemies rise from the ruins and secrets twist the past into something unrecognizable, Chayne is forced to ask the question no one ever dared ask her father:

What if you never controlled the board at all?
