Synopsis

To save her world, a young goddess must first survive ours.

When her best friend Dimitri mysteriously vanishes, twelve-year-old Kassie—daughter of the gods Mars and Caïssa—sees her family blamed and war erupt between kingdoms. Sent from her sheltered home on Chess Mountain, she must hide her true identity on Earth, complete a dangerous quest, and face her greatest challenge yet—surviving middle school in New York City.

Masquerading as a regular student, she encounters a mysterious teacher, a bully, and a quiet boy with a metal leg who becomes an unexpected ally. But dangerous exiles are stalking her from the shadows, forcing Kassie to trust her instincts, find her courage, and decide who she can truly rely on.

Torn between her divine duty and the human friendships she begins to form, Kassie learns that every move matters—and sometimes the greatest victories require the bravest sacrifices.

A fast-paced fantasy adventure for fans of Percy Jackson, Matilda, and epic quests, blending ancient chess lore, hidden clues, surprising twists, and heartfelt journeys—laying the foundation for the upcoming fantasy series, The Chess Mountain Chronicles.
