Alma’s search for answers only raises more questions. Someone wants her dead, but who? Her new stepfamily? The foreign diplomats who have allegedly come to make peace? When the prince asks for her help, Alma becomes tangled in a web of politics and magic that will take all her cunning to unweave, and she finds herself questioning if a noble marriage would actually give her the freedom she craves.
Can Alma overcome curses and conspiracies to find her place in Castana? Or does her destiny lie somewhere beyond the world she knows, in a future she’s never imagined?
Lady Alma is a novel about facing change and finding your own path. If you like magic, mystery, and strong female characters, you’ll love this new twist on the classic tale of Cinderella.
Author’s Note Lady Alma is a prequel to Rook and Shadow, but it can be enjoyed as a stand-alone novel. While the books are loosely connected, each features a complete story with a different heroine.
A. G. Marshall
A. G. Marshall writes the kind of fantasy that remembers why fairy tales have endured for centuries. Her stories are filled with enchanted forests, hidden kingdoms, clever heroines, and unexpected twists on familiar legends, yet they never feel trapped by tradition. Instead, they explore what happens when beloved tales are viewed from a new angle, allowing old magic to reveal something entirely different.
Long before becoming a published author, Marshall was the child who could always be found in a library, wandering through shelves in search of new worlds. Stories became a constant companion, and writing soon followed. What began as a love of reading gradually evolved into a passion for creating her own adventures, inspired by folklore, fantasy, and the timeless appeal of characters who must discover their own strength.
