Welcome to the Realm of Virtues
where murder is always a royal affair
After ascending the throne of Saphire in the wake of her beloved parents' tragic deaths, Duchess Jacqueline Arienta Xavier finds herself thrust into a world of danger and deception. With murder and mayhem lurking around every castle corner, Jax must rely on her wits, courage, and a fearless circle of friends to uncover dark secrets, unmask traitors, and protect her people. But as tensions rise and enemies close in, even the grand halls of her regal home may not be safe from deadly plots threatening Jax’s reign.
The epic conclusion is here…
Peace is finally within the Duchess's reach…
Despite her tumultuous history with its former ruler, Duchess Jacqueline Arienta Xavier refuses to stand idly by as war ravages the Duchy of Savant. Calling for a ceasefire, Jax summons the rival leaders to Saphire, hoping to broker peace—and buy time for her friends, George Solomon and Serafina Braeknoch, to complete a secret mission.
Optimism fills the air as the Savantian delegates arrive at Glennfeld Manor, but when disaster strikes, negotiations teeter on the brink of collapse—and death lurks close behind.
Can Jax, Perry, and their allies expose the source of this newfound threat, or will the Duchess’s final bid for peace spiral into chaos?
Join Duchess Jacqueline for her final case in Eternal Empire, a Court of Mystery novel.
