Description

October "Toby" Daye navigates an enchanting yet perilous world that exists just beyond the veil of the human realm. As a changeling, her unique heritage leaves her caught between two cultures, feeling like an intruder in both. Despite her quest for belonging, Toby is forced to confront the gritty realities of her existence when a close friend is murdered, thrusting her into a web of intrigue woven from betrayal and lies.

Determined to bring justice to her fallen companion, Toby plunges headfirst into the treacherous politics of the fae. With each step, she uncovers layers of darkness and ancient grudges that challenge her identity and threaten her very life. The vivid world that McGuire creates is both beautiful and deadly, populated by complex characters, each with their own secrets and motivations, making it hard for Toby to discern friend from foe.

Amidst the chaos, Toby grapples with her own identity and the inherent conflict of her dual nature. As she fights for her friend’s honor, she also confronts the ghosts of her past, revealing truths that she has long kept buried. The emotional stakes are high as she risks everything—her safety, her heart, and the tenuous connection she has to both worlds.

In this gripping tale of mystery, magic, and self-discovery, Toby's journey captures the essence of what it truly means to belong while exploring the sacrifices and challenges that come with being an outsider. McGuire's masterful storytelling invites readers into a richly imagined universe that resonates with themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the bittersweet quest for acceptance.
