When summer was over the faerie would come for the children. Cobbs is a threadbare mining town with secrets and sorrow to spare. The newly arrived Rutherfords choke on their own share of misery when their daughter Abigail suddenly vanishes. Desperate to find his sister, Jack has no one to turn to but Lucius, a mysterious former slave with a few secrets of his own. Together they plunge into the twisting, enchanted landscape of the wicked, the fey, and the grim. Jack will have to unlock the rules of wyrd magic and ancient relics to prevail, but there is far more at stake than either of them can imagine. An historically rich saga of spell-binding power that grabs the reader and won't let go.
