Joan He Synopsis: Descendant of the Crane is a standalone title by Joan He. Princess Hesina of Yan has always been eager to avoid the responsibilities of the crown, but when her beloved father is murdered, she’s thrust into power, now the queen of an unstable kingdom. Determined to solve father’s murder, Hesina does something desperate: she enlists the aid of a soothsayer – an act of treason, which is punishable by death. Magic has been outlawed in Yan for centuries.
Using the information illicitly provided by the sooth, and unsure if she can trust even her family, Hesina turns to Akira – a brilliant investigator who’s also a convicted criminal with secrets of his own. With the future of her kingdom at stake, can Hesina find justice for her father? Or will the cost be too much?
