Heartbroken: A Tale of the Sea Witch's Sister

An ordinary young woman in Wonderland has a temper she cannot govern. As her rages grow more dangerous, she moves step by step toward becoming the Queen of Hearts, the tyrant who rules the land.

The White Rabbit stays beside her through the change. His devotion is the one steady thing she has, and it becomes the only anchor left to her as her hold on Wonderland tightens.

The Odd Sisters are already circling. This meddling trio has shaped the fates of villains across the series, and they have plans of their own for her.

This is the twelfth book in Serena Valentino's Villains series, a Disney reimagining told in a gothic, fairy-tale voice. It treats the Queen's cruelty as the end of a specific, traceable descent rather than a trait she was born with. The open question is how much of her the White Rabbit's loyalty can hold onto.
