To save the crusader kingdom, Marta Bessarion will need more than a magic spear to destroy its enemies—she’ll need a saint to save its soul. Jerusalem, 1180: A catastrophe destroyed Marta Bessarion's family and whisked her away from everything she once knew. Now, armed with an invincible lance, Marta vows to protect her new home and family. When enemies muster on the kingdom’s borders, Marta charges into battle. But trouble is brewing within the glittering palaces of Jerusalem itself... The young Leper King, Baldwin, is dying. Before he goes, Baldwin must choose a successor...but every choice is a bad one: an innocent child, a grasping cousin—or his ambitious sister, who is determined to rule even if it triggers a war. When Baldwin's choice puts her newfound family at risk, Marta finds herself fighting a new kind of battle within the kingdom itself—one in which intrigue, corruption, and betrayal are the weapons. The angels may quite literally be on her side, but how can one naïve girl save the soul of a kingdom? Wonder Woman meets City of Brass in The Lady of Kingdoms, Book 2 in the Watchers of Outremer series (though it can be read as a stand-alone).
