THE WILL OF THE EMPRESS by Tamora Pierce

When Sandriline and her friends travel to her cousin’s land to see the land that her family has owned for years. But, when her cousin, the empress, wants to keep Sandrilie’s fortune in her land, Sandriline and her friends must escape her cousins powerful warriors and mages to get back to their homeland.
The scariest part was when someone kidnapped Sandriline and tries to get her fortune and property through marriage, by keeping her trapped until she signs a marriage contract.
I think both boys and girls ages 12-14 years old will enjoy this book.
