In a world dominated by the brutal Vathek empire, eighteen-year-old Amani is a dreamer. She dreams of what life was like before the occupation. When she is kidnapped by the regime and taken in secret to the royal palace, she discovers that she is nearly identical to the cruel half-Vathek Princess Maram. Amani is forced into being a body double for the hated princess, but she can’t help but enjoy the palace’s beauty and her time with the princess’ fiancé, Idris. But the glitter of the royal court belies a world of violence and fear. If Amani ever wishes to see her family again, she must play the princess to perfection because one wrong move could lead to her death.
