The Ragpicker King drops you back into the fraught world of Castellane, where loyalty is a luxury and deception is currency. You'll follow Kel Saren, a body double navigating the glittering, treacherous court, trying to protect his prince while simultaneously delving into the city's dark criminal underworld. Then there's Lin Caster, who's taken on a dangerous lie – claiming to be a goddess reborn – to save a friend, finding herself tangled with a magnetic, terrifying leader and the very prince she's trying to heal. This is a story dense with political intrigue and forbidden romance, keeping you on edge as both characters grapple with impossible choices and the heavy cost of their secrets. It's for readers who crave a sprawling, intense fantasy with a strong undercurrent of danger and characters perpetually caught between duty and desire.
