Red Queen meets The Hunger Games in this epic novel about
what happens when the galaxy’s most deadly weapon
masquerades as a senator’s daughter and a hostage of the
galactic court. A Diabolic is ruthless. A Diabolic is powerful. A
Diabolic has a single task: Kill in order to protect the
person you’ve been created for. Nemesis is a Diabolic, a humanoid teenager created to
protect a galactic senator’s daughter, Sidonia. The two
have grown up side by side, but are in no way sisters.
Nemesis is expected to give her life for Sidonia, and she
would do so gladly. She would also take as many lives as
necessary to keep Sidonia safe. When the power-mad Emperor learns Sidonia’s father is
participating in a rebellion, he summons Sidonia to the
Galactic court. She is to serve as a hostage. Now, there
is only one way for Nemesis to protect Sidonia. She must
become her. Nemesis travels to the court disguised as
Sidonia—a killing machine masquerading in a world of
corrupt politicians and two-faced senators’ children.
It’s a nest of vipers with threats on every side, but
Nemesis must keep her true abilities a secret or risk
everything. As the Empire begins to fracture and rebellion looms
closer, Nemesis learns there is something more to her
than just deadly force. She finds a humanity truer than
what she encounters from most humans. Amidst all the
danger, action, and intrigue, her humanity just might be
the thing that saves her life—and the empire.
