Penelope Must Die: The Villainess Fakes Her Death

Penelope is reincarnated into a book she read as a kid — as Penelope Ashdown. The first thing she sees when she wakes up? A judge. An audience.



Turns out, she’s on trial for the long list of crimes Ashdown had committed. And regardless of the verdict, she's scheduled to die in a week on her way to prison.



Being a doctor in her past life doesn't help.



Belonging to a powerful noble house doesn't help.



Being rumored to have magical powers definitely doesn't help.



Her only shot at survival? Vicious wit and a lucky encounter with a nobleman so beloved by society, they’ve never bothered to check what he really is.
