**IN A LAND OF KNIGHTS AND KINGS, TWO WOMEN WILL REWRITE THE RULES OF LOVE AND MAGIC  
**  
**A spellbinding sapphic reimagining of the myths of Camelot from award-winning historian and YouTube sensation Jean Menzies.**

'**A fierce, luminous and captivating reimagining of Arthurian legend that pairs feminist resistance with a scorching sapphic romance. The Lady of The Lake had me completely under its spell'** BEA FITZGERALD

\--  
When **Lady Viviane** leaves the lakes of the far North for the splendour of **Camelot**, she knows the **destiny** her father has planned for her. To capture the **heart and hand** of the young prince, **Arthur**. To bring her family **richness and glory**.

But it is **Arthur's sister Morgan who captures Viviane's eye**. **Fierce** and **headstrong**, Morgan sees another path - one she and Viviane can carve for themselves in this world built for **knights** and **kings**.

Now everything has shifted and changed. Under the guidance of the court sorcerer **Merlin**, she discovers **magical powers** within herself. And before long, she finds her **friendship with Morgan deepening** to the first flush of **love**.

But in Camelot, **eyes are everywhere** and no one is as they seem.

The **quest for power** breeds **darkness** and **danger**, and when Arthur pulls the **legendary sword from the stone** and rises to King, his closest allies will ask terrible things of Viviane and Morgan - striving to tear them apart for their own ends.

**And if they cannot find their way back to each other, Camelot itself could fall . . .**
