Description
Staggering A world that is breathtaking and crushing, beautiful and vile, and whimsical and terrifying. [Clayton] poignantly uses a harrowing, fantastical tale to illuminate the very real horrors of unattainable beauty standards and the enslavement of marginalized bodies. As relevant as it is exquisite.
Booklist, starred review
In this sequel to the New York Times best-selling novel, The Belles, Camellia Beaureguard, the former favorite Belle, must race against time to find the ailing Princess Charlotte, who has disappeared without a trace.
The evil queen Sophias imperial forces will stop at nothing to keep Camille, her sister Edel, and her loyal guard, R?y, from returning Charlotte to the palace and her rightful place as queen.
With the help of an underground resistance movement called the Iron Ladies-a society that rejects beauty treatments entirely-and the backing of alternative newspaper the Spiders Web, Camille uses her powers, her connections, and her cunning to outwit her greatest nemesis, Sophia, and attempt to restore peace to Orl?ns. But enemies lurk in the most unexpected places, forcing Camille to decide just how much shes willing to sacrifice to save her people.
Nothing is what it seems in this must-read sequel to the instant New York Times best-seller.
