Long Live The King follows the story of a young royal who seeks to break free from the confines of his privileged yet stifling life. The narrative explores the prince's desire for adventure and meaningful connections, as he struggles with the weight of royal expectations and his future responsibilities. Set against the backdrop of a formal opera house, the story begins with the prince’s longing for a life outside the rigid structure of royalty, leading him to secretly venture into the world in search of excitement. Through his escapades, the novel contrasts the joy of freedom with the burdens of his royal duties, showcasing the prince's internal conflict. The early chapters also explore the prince's relationships, particularly with his cousins and his first experiences with love, highlighting the tension between personal desires and the demands of his future position. As the prince navigates these complexities, the story delves into themes of youthful innocence, duty, and the desire for autonomy, offering a poignant exploration of the challenges faced by those bound by tradition and expectation.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Mary Roberts Rinehart

Mary Roberts Rinehart nasceu em Pittsburgh, nos Estados Unidos da América, a 12 de agosto de 1876. Formada em enfermagem, cujos conhecimentos técnicos veio a aplicar com mestria nas tramas que concebeu, foi após uma queda de valores na Bolsa americana que Rinehart, vendo-se sem poupanças, começa a escrever as primeiras histórias. O seu livro de estreia, O Mistério da Escada de Caracol (1908), tornou-se um enorme êxito e é ainda hoje considerado um título pioneiro do romance policial. Responsável pelo desfecho «o culpado é o mordomo», que ficaria para sempre associado ao romance de mistério, a autora inovou e amplificou o género, destacando-se ainda com a obra O Homem da Cama n.º 10 (1909), ou a peça O Morcego, que serviria de inspiração à personagem de Batman. Morre em Nova Iorque, a 22 de setembro de 1958.
