Alice the Dagger

<p><strong>They call me the dagger.</strong></p><p>I'm a famed assassin. </p><p>It's all I've ever known. </p><p>So when a white rabbit tells me that loved ones are waiting for me in the Wonderland Court of Faerie it's surprising. And then I learn something even more shocking.</p><p>The Red Queen stole the crown from my mother-who she murdered. The queen singlehandedly created my reality of death and blood and murder.</p><p>While that's devastating I can handle it. As long as I get revenge.</p><p>What I don't know how to handle is Henri Hatter.</p><p>He's a rebel leader loved by everyone. A man who sings in the streets because people ask for aether's sake. A faerie who knows more about my past than anyone-including me.</p><p>A good man who could crush my heart if I let him in. Which I can't do.</p><p>Not if I want vengeance against the Queen who ruined my life. Despite my claims that I work alone Hatter and two nosey little pixies insist on sticking with me.</p><p>Only one thing is for sure with them by my side assassinating the Red Queen will be unlike any other job I've ever tackled.</p>
