Through Designs Beheld
A duchess denied her throne.
Her council plotting behind closed doors.
Can an inexperienced heiress uphold her family’s legacy?
Kireane Birghiten is powerless. Ready to fulfill her oath to her long-gone father, the eager duchess-to-be is trapped under the crushing oversight of her all-male council who resist her ascension to the throne. Just when she uncovers a law that could grant her access to her rightful position, a looming marriage proposal threatens to suppress her new-found authority before she has a chance to find her stride.
With a growing list of enemies, Kireane redoubles her efforts to bring order to her duchy as assassination plots threaten to remove her from power–permanently. But with few allies, Kireane fears her opposition may be right after all–maybe she isn’t fit to rule. With all strategies exhausted and the king’s arrival on the horizon, can Kireane find within herself her worth as a leader, and keep a Birghiten on the throne?
Through Designs Beheld is the riveting fifth book in the Triumvirs classic fantasy series. If you like underdog stories, impossible odds, and political intrigue then you’ll love Daniel Dydek’s enthralling tale of intrigue.
