    About this audiobook

    A YA Fairytale Retelling of Alice in Wonderland.

    They call me the dagger.

    I’m an assassin and that’s all I’ve ever known. 

    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.

    The Red Queen stole the Crown of Wonderland from my mother. Murdered her too. The queen singlehandedly created my reality of death and blood and murder.

    While that's devastating, I can handle those emotions. Its what I have been trained to do. 

    What I don't know how to handle is rebel leader Henri Hatter.

    He’s 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.

    A good man who could crush my heart if I let him in. 

    Despite my claims that I work alone, Hatter and two nosey little pixies insist on sticking with me.

    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.

    Throne of Glass meets Alice in Wonderland, Alice the Dagger is a YA Fae fantasy. Readers of Brigid Kemmerer and Marissa Meyer who love adventure, slow-burn romances, whimsical worlds, spunky sidekicks, and lots of action will love Alice the Dagger.
