What this book is about

In a kingdom divided into four quadrants, each ruled by a queen, Keralie is a pickpocket who steals a chip containing the queens' private communications. Soon all four queens are dead and Keralie — with a palace messenger named Mackiel — is the only one who might be able to unravel what happened. Scholte's debut YA fantasy is clever and fast-paced.
