  In the tiny European country of Tantalia, Princess Niobe is being groomed to ascend to the throne. What her people don’t know is that from the age of sixteen, the Princess has been trained by her martial arts instructor, Gethan, to kill the businessman responsible for her parent’s deaths. Once Queen, she will have ‘sovereign immunity’ and be free to kill without the risk of arrest. 
  Niobe strikes, but unbeknownst to her, one of her kills is caught on camera and she is identified as the assassin. Her people, however, seem accepting of the idea and of their Queen’s unconventional activities. Then a TV producer comes to her with a novel idea – how about a reality tv show about her next kill? 
  Safe in the knowledge she can’t be prosecuted Niobe contemplates the offer... but there are more questions than answers... for a start – how will the world respond to a sovereign assassin? 
  Sovereign Assassin is a rollicking romp of a story, fresh from the mind of speculative fiction/fantasy author Robert New, and promises to entertain, intrigue, and fascinate from beginning to end. 
  "Original, interesting, entertaining, and exceptionally well written, Sovereign Assassin by talented novelist Robert New is a simply riveting read and an especially and unreservedly recommended pick." - Midwest Book Review (October 2023) 
  "A thrilling, fast-paced book...run through with a seam of genuinely deep philosophy." - Read Freely

  Maureen is still getting used to life on Ocracoke Island, learning how to play the "shell game" of her business—and ghost whispering with the spirit of Emrys Lloyd, the eighteenth-century Welsh pirate who haunts her shop, The Moon Shell. The spectral buccaneer has unburied a treasure hidden in the shop's attic that turns out to be antique shell art stolen from Maureen's late husband's family years ago. 
   
   
   
  Victor "Shelly" Sullivan and his wife Lenrose visit the shop and specifically inquire about these rare items. Not only is it suspicious that this shell collector should arrive around the time Maureen found the art, but Emrys insists that Sullivan's wife is an imposter because Lenrose is dead. A woman's corpse the police have been unable to identify was discovered by the Fig Ladies, a group who formed an online fig appreciation society. They're meeting on Ocracoke for the first time in person and count Lenrose among their number, so the woman can't possibly be dead. 
   
   
   
  But Lenrose's behavior doesn't quite match the person the Fig Ladies interacted with online. Now, Maureen and Emrys—with assistance from the Fig Ladies—must prove the real Lenrose is dead and unmask her mysterious pretender before a desperate murderer strikes again . . .
