In the Shadow of the Palace Publisher's Summary

Cara knows one thing for certain: She won't become a prostitute like her mother. But it seems that she cannot escape her fate -- until a chance friendship leads her to a place she would never expect: the glittering palace of the House of Dorsa, where every smile hides a knife.

Cara is thrust into a world of politics and intrigue that she barely understands. She discovers an unexpected ally in Fin, the stable master’s daughter. Their friendship deepens into something more, but desire in the palace can be deadly -- for both of them.

To survive, Cara must risk everything: her freedom, her love, and perhaps the fate of the realm itself.

In the Shadow of the Palace is the first book in A Tide of Shadows, the prequel series to the Chronicles of Dorsa. You do NOT need to have listened to the Chronicles of Dorsa to enjoy this book.
