YA
Wilhelmina and Tobiah (The Orphan Queen) can no longer play at vigilantism; they must lead two nations not only at odds, but also facing annihilation from the destructive magical byproduct known as wraith. Meadows takes no shortcuts: her protagonists struggle with impossible situations, often worsened by their own mistakes, and their happy ending is all the more satisfying for being so hard-won.
