Each year, eight beautiful girls are chosen as Paper Girls to serve the king. It's the highest honour they could hope for...and the most demeaning. But, this year, there's a ninth. And instead of paper, she's made of fire.Lei is a member of the Paper caste, the lowest and most persecuted class of people in Ikhara. Ten years ago, her mother was snatched by the royal guards, and her fate remains unknown. Now, the guards are back and this time it's Lei they're after - the girl with the golden eyes, whose rumoured beauty has piqued the king's interest.Over weeks of training in the opulent but oppressive palace, Lei and eight other girls learn the skills and charm that befit a king's consort. There, Lei does the unthinkable - she falls in love. Her forbidden romance becomes enmeshed with an explosive plot that threatens her world's entire way of life. Lei, still the wide-eyed country girl at heart, must decide how far she's willing to go for justice and revenge.Please be aware that this book contains scenes of violence and sexual assault. £14.99 PRAISE FOR GIRLS of PAPER and FIRE'Gorgeously written, gripping, brutal - a sapphic love story I couldn't stop reading'Samantha Shannon, NYT bestselling author of The Bone Season 'Ngan's plot is tense and tight, her action sequences are elegant and adrenaline-soaked, and her story's stakes increase exponentially through the pulse-pounding conclusion'Publisher's Weekly, starred review 'Beautiful, lush, lyrical with fantastic world building and an epic forbidden romance, I devoured every word and was left desperately wanting more'Ellen Oh, author of The Prophecy series Twitter: @girlinthelensFacebook: /girlinthelensWebsite: girlinthelens.comInstagram: girlinthelens
