The Cruel Prince

Jude was seven when her parents were murdered and taken away to live in the High Court of Faerie. Ten years later, she still wants to belong there, but many of the fey despise humans, especially Prince Cardan, the youngest and wickedest son of the High King. To win a place at the Court, Jude must defy him and face the consequences. She discovers her capacity for trickery and bloodshed, and as betrayal threatens to drown the Courts of Faerie in violence, she must risk her life in a dangerous alliance to save her sisters and Faerie itself.
