Description

Blurs are fast. Muscles are strong. Shields have impervious skin. Mimics can change their appearance. And all of them are in danger. One Mimic is about to discover that nothing is as it seems in the Empire of Talents. Capable of contorting her face to resemble anyone, Mica dreams of using her skills on daring spy missions in enemy territory. Instead, she's sent to work for a frivolous young princess. Infiltrating tea parties and collecting palace gossip makes Mica want to kill someone-preferably the princess herself-but she soon learns there's more to this world than extravagant parties. She gets caught up in a web of courtly intrigues and treacherous secrets. When her fellow Talents start disappearing from the empire, Mica may be the only one who can uncover their hidden foe and save them all. She can change her face, but can she play the game? From the author of Steel and Fire comes a tale of mystery, romance, and courtly intrigue in a decadent fantasy empire.
