Alice Hightower

The Midnight Kingdom Alice Hightower

She's a witty self-monologue-er, a brilliant thief, and capable of calculating all the situations she finds herself in. The only thing she can't con her way out of is magic, and, well... she's been dropped right into the middle of it.



Mysteriously transported to a forbidden kingdom on the other side of the world, a chance meeting with a beggar leads her to believe that nothing about her arrival here seems accidental.



Finding an unlikely ally in the charming princess is enticing, but this is no time to catch feelings. When the princess begs for her help to end a curse, she soon learns that she's in over her head; her own past and the kingdom's future collide, resting the fate of the known world in her hands.
