By day Eustaquia \”Kiki\” de Sonza and Ana Lezama de Urinza are proper young seventeeth century ladies. But when night falls, they trade in their silks and lace for swords and muskets, venturing out into the vibrant, bustling, crime-ridden streets of Potosi, in the Spanish Empire’s Viceroyalty of Peru. They pass their time fighting, gambling, and falling desperately in love with one another.

Then, on the night Kiki’s engagement to the Viceroy’s son is announced, her older brother – heir to her family’s fortune – is murdered. The girls immediately embark on a whirlwind investigation that takes them from the lowliest brothels of Potosi to the highest echelons of the Spanish aristocracy.

Valiant Ladies

Review by Kazia
Sapphics with swords in a historical setting – what more could you need? I fell in love with these stubborn, useless lesbians then fell even harder at the knowledge that they were a very real (and so badass!) vigilante couple. On finishing this book, I have the sudden urge to start a fight in a tavern in my best swashbuckling outfit. BRB – buying myself a sword and a cool hat.
