For a thousand years, Concordia has maintained peace between its provinces. To mark this incredible feat, the emperor’s ship embarks upon a twelve-day voyage to the sacred Goddess’s Mountain. Aboard are the twelve heirs of the provinces of Concordia, each graced with a unique and secret magical ability known as a Blessing.

All except one: Ganymedes Piscero—class clown, slacker and all-around disappointment.

When a beloved heir is murdered, everyone is a suspect. Stuck at sea and surrounded by powerful people and without a Blessing to protect him, Ganymedes’s odds of survival are slim.

But as the bodies pile higher, Ganymedes must become the hero he was not born to be. Can he unmask the killer and their secret Blessing before this bloody crusade reaches the shores of Concordia?

Or will the empire as he knows it fall?

Best book I've read this year, the bar to reach, and I highly doubt anything will top it. In my top 10 books of all time, possibly top 5 or 3. 
I was enchanted, emotional, yelling irl, and I'm itching to reread it immediately.

The diversity representation is fantastic, none of it is tokenised or used as a plot device. They're just characteristics of characters, that's it, it was so refreshing!!
