Publisher Description

Four tribes of warring demigods rule over luck in our world. To survive, Aggie must find out who is murdering them…

As a newly minted Queen of Hearts and a high school senior, Aggie has her hands full. Being a demigoddess. Managing her OCD. Prepping for the SATs. And most of all searching for her mom, who has been brainwashed and remade into a bad luck goddess, the Queen of Spades.

Aggie needs help from her suit of luck gods to get her mom back. But when a prominent Heart is murdered, the Valentines split into factions and question her leadership—because Aggie is one of the suspects. To prove her innocence and regain her suit’s loyalty, Aggie must solve the murder. Her partner on the case? Her roguish sort of ex-boyfriend, the Jack of Hearts.

The investigation will pit them against goblins, sylphs, bad luck gods, a mysterious secret order, and even members of their own suit. And they’ll have to hurry. Because the Queen of Spades has plans, too. Plans that could cast a shadow of misery over the entire world…

Daughter of Diamonds is a YA urban fantasy featuring slow-burn romance, royal intrigue, found family, and a mind-bending original magic system based on the four card suits.
