Welcome to Litsy!

New York Times bestselling author E. K. Johnston, author of the Queens series starring Padm� Amidala, brings fans an untold story about Qi'ra, portrayed by Emilia Clarke in Star Wars: A Solo Story. Not everyone gets to be the hero. Qi�ra listened to the dreams and promises of a boy with a reckless smile, only to be torn away from him and returned to the White Worms gang while Han made his way to freedom. Now freedom seems like a luxury she can�t afford while she concentrates on survival and despairs of ever leaving Corellia. But her fortunes seem to turn when a representative of the crime syndicate Crimson Dawn plucks Qi�ra from captivity and brings her to the syndicate�s leader, the mysterious and mercurial Dryden Vos. Vos offers Qi�ra an opportunity she�s never had before: the chance to build something resembling a comfortable life if she can prove her worth to his organization. With failure meaning certain death, Qi�ra knows she must immerse herself in the merciless, murderous world of Crimson Dawn. What she doesn�t know is just who she will be if she survives. . . .
