The Girl King

Georgia, 1177. For 20 years King Giorgi has defended his fragile kingdom. Now he faces a grave new threat: he has no son to succeed him. There is only his daughter, Tamar. When a revolt threatens her life, Tamar is sent to live in the mountains, disguised as a boy, until a devastating betrayal places her in the hands of her enemies. Her courageous escape convinces Giorgi she should be his heir, but the nobles are outraged – no woman will ever rule them.
