"London 1889. A bustling city full of magic, secrets, and shadows that lurk behind every corner. When the heir to the Order of Crowns, London's most known secret society, is murdered over a magical coronet, four individuals find themselves racing against time to not only find the murderer but to get their hands on the coronet.
Aura Wrentroth - A poison scientist with blood on her hands.
Locklyn Mortsakov - A lord with a cursed heart.
Iskra Storennè - A runaway trying to earn her freedom.
Sören Niaheartson - A detective's son trying to prove himself.
In a dangerous game of betrayal, trust becomes fleeting, magic is a lie, and a friendly smile can hide dark secrets. What started as a matter of inheritance quickly spirals into a wicked waltz. Time is ticking, death is calling, and only one of them can have the coronet. To get it, they must find the murderer and remember one thing: it's all a game."

Hi! My name is Molly and am a teenager that is passionate about the literary world. Interested in pursuing a job in the law field, these socials and pages are used to dedicate my time and energy towards my truest hobbies. Whether you're following me on my bookstagram, my podcast account, or even the literary magazine, you'll get to better understand me as a person!
I love reading and writing. I'm currently writing my first novel entitled "The Butterfly Lovers" after the Chinese mythology of the same name. This book will start my novel writing journey and hopefully help me understand the writing world a little more. If you're interested in my writing, follow me on my @fromthedeskofagirl account!
