There are kingdoms built on duty.
And there are kingdoms built on silence.
Prince Cable has spent his life beneath the careful devotion of a mother who taught him that love and possession were one and the same.
Protected.
Praised.
Possessed.
Within the palace, Queen Renu prepares her only son to inherit everything.
Beyond its walls, young women disappear.
As fear spreads through the lower ward, Jasmine Calder refuses to become what the kingdom expects of her. Armed with the lessons of her father and an unwillingness to ignore what others dismiss, she begins to notice the fractures beneath the polished surface of royal life.
Some revolutions begin with armies.
Others begin with a single woman refusing to look away.
The Queen's Son: Heir is the first volume of a sweeping literary epic about power, inheritance, survival, and the stories kingdoms tell to protect the people they cannot bear to question.
