CASSANDRA'S CASTLE

CASSANDRA'S CASTLE
By Dianne Gardner

GENRE: Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Historical
LOGLINE:

When a teenager is transported through a time warp, she lands in the middle of a rebellion, joins forces with the insurgents, and falls in love with the king's son.

SYNOPSIS:

Cassandra Wilson, discovers a portal accessible through her cell phone. Thrilled to explore an unknown world, she steps into a magical forest and meets a grumpy old wizard who announces she's a princess.

The wizard's rival, Valerio, a handsome rebel from Alisubbo-a technologically-advanced kingdom by the sea, draws her away from the woods, and persuades Cassie to join his revolution to free the people of the city that he claims has long been suffering under the tyranny of King Chavez. Only a foreign princess can deliver their much needed appeal to the throne in hopes that a peaceful compromise will be had.

What Cassandra doesn't know is that she has become a pawn, entwined in a dark and dangerous rebellion. Her initial alliance with Valerio turns her against a kingdom she knows nothing about.

With hands stained in blood, she realizes her mistake, falls helplessly in love with the wounded heir to the throne, and now must convince him to trust her. The burden of a nation is on Cassie's shoulders. Her only redemption is to encourage the reluctant heir to champion his father's throne.

Inspired by the story of the young and exiled king Manuel II of Portugal, 1908.

Nice setup, logline. A bit cliche in the synopsis, but an unique twist would separate it from the usual fantasy and sword and sorcery projects. Good luck!!
