The debut novel of author Ava White and illustrator Olivia Lee, Camille's Monarch follows the story of a young Monarch and the daughter of a killer in the treacherous days after a string of murders. "May your claws be ever stained by the Killer's blood, and may your ears be ever attuned to Camille's voice." Three colonies of wild cats struggle in the aftermath of an unexplainable string of murders. Seven cats are dead, and countless others are left confused, afraid, and desperate to ensure that what the Killer did will not be repeated by his kin. After the loss of his family, a young Monarch rises to power in the Evergreen Colony with one mission: to restore the safety of his cats for good by destroying the Killer's bloodline.
In the Lake Colony, the daughter of the now-infamous Killer of Seven fights against the judgment of the Lake cats and tries to learn the truth about her father, all while dodging the attacks of an orphaned Lake cat left behind in the Killer's wake. Both of their paths intertwine as two halves of a whole in this story of vengeance, betrayal, and secrets that are bound to be unearthed.
