Cassie faces a choice, and who better to help her understand the importance - and power - of choices than Sudha, a Vishakanya, or poison maiden, a female assassin whose very touch is deadly? NYT-Bestselling Author Roshani Chokshi retells the death of Alexander the Great in "The Vishakanya's Choice." This is a story about whose point of view tells the story; told from the POV of a woman who has never had a Choice, as they are a most precious thing, thought only to be the domain of kings.
