About the Book

Welcome to the Realm of Virtues, where murder is a royal affair.

"These six stories were sensational!" - Audible

After ascending the throne of Saphire following the sudden death of her beloved parents, Duchess Jacqueline Arienta Xavier and her fearless friends face murder and mayhem around every castle corner.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown and cracks the case. This prequel anthology is comprised of the first five Duchess Jacqueline adventures, The Ducal Detective, A Feast Most Foul, A Voyage of Vengeance, A Summit in Shadow, and Throne of Threats. Also included in this collection is the first Realm of Virtues Story, featuring a young George Solomon.

"Such a lovely tale. It had intrigue, action, friendship, and a beautiful romance."

"A very good mix of mystery and fantasy and royalty."

The Ducal Detective: In this captivating novella introducing the Realm of Virtues, Jacqueline Arienta Xavier is the newly crowned Duchess of Saphire after her parents' carriage is found overturned on their way to a knights' tournament. While at first the tragedy is deemed an accident, the Duchess discovers a sinister plot in the heart of her own duchy. She must use her fearless curiosity, with help from unsuspecting friends, to unmask the culprit before the traitor comes for her head.

A Feast Most Foul: For her first official trip as Duchess of Saphire, Jacqueline Arienta Xavier arrives at the Duchy of Mensina, home to her fierce and cunning grandfather, the Duke. What starts off as a celebration for tournament champions takes a ghastly turn when a reclusive knight is found dead in his tent. The Duchess must race to apprehend the culprit before those closest to her pay for the crime.

A Voyage of Vengeance: Duchess Jacqueline Arienta Xavier is looking forward to the maiden voyage of Rose of the Sea, a grand luxury ship commissioned by Isla DeLacqua, an island duchy and ally of Saphire. What is meant to be a reunion of old friends quickly takes an eerie turn when mysterious disappearances begin happening aboard the new ship. Can the Duchess uncover the treacherous source before irreparable damage is done?

A Summit in Shadow: As winter settles across the land, Jacqueline Arienta Xavier travels north to Lysandeir to discuss the future of the infamous wilds of Cetachi. When a young woman unexpectedly dies the night the Saphire delegation arrives at the summit, the Duchess senses darkness looming over the gathering. While others dismiss the woman's death as accidental, Jax knows something more sinister is afoot. She and her friends must scour the halls of the stone fortress in search of the perpetrator before the realm is cast into civil war.

Throne of Threats: As her royal wedding approaches, Jacqueline Arienta Xavier cannot help but feel a shadow of unease in her mind. Surrounded by her dearest friends, she is horrified to learn her lady-in-waiting has been attacked and kidnapped by unknown assailants just days before the ceremony. Determined to bring Uma back home safely, the Duchess begins to question the loyalties of all her guests, even her fiancé, Perry. Can Jax track down the culprits before they do something drastic, or is Uma only the first victim in a rebellion against the throne?

Mark of Mettle: When George Solomon joined the Ducal Guard at age sixteen, he had no idea his life was about to change forever. In this Realm of Virtues short story, discover how Duchess Jacqueline Arienta Xavier found herself a lifelong friend in the most harrowing of ways.
