Publisher's Synopsis
When seventeen-year-old Daniella Romano masquerades as the son of a low-ranked Chinese lord, and waltzes with her comrades into the earl of Middlemarch's birthday party in order to assassinate a high demon, her revenge plans turn sour. There, Daniella meets Zach-a Greek god if she ever saw one-who suspects she is an imposter and will not let her escape his sight. Amidst the exuberant atmosphere, a man shoots the powerful king of Darnia, Daniella incidentally witnesses another influential lord slaying the culprit, and her friends are captured, ultimately becoming the prime suspects in the case of treason. Now it is up to Daniella to use her wit, wiles, and skills as a blood alchemist-an inherited ability to control and transmute blood into powerful weapons-to save her friends. Set in an alternative world of Britannia during the reign of Queen Victoria, The Blood Alchemist Chronicles is a mashup of fantasy, mystery, and romance.
