Rani joins Ria’s best friend and partner in thieving, Amir, convincing him that she is Ria. The truce between Abai and the neighbouring kingdom of Kaama is about to end, and Rani believes the Bloodstone is the only thing that will prevent the countries from plunging into war. Rani discovers Ria and convinces her to swap places so that Rani can go searching for a mysterious stone her beloved tutor told her about before he was executed for treason. When Ria is conscripted into the army, she risks burglarizing the palace to get enough jewels to buy a forged passport to escape Abai. Rani is the raja’s daughter, constrained by the demands of her princess role which includes developing the much-feared snake magic that only the royals can wield. Ria is an orphan and a thief in a country ruled by an oppressive raja. Sisters of the Snake is a Prince and the Pauper-style identity swap set in Abai, a fantasy world inspired by India.
