A supernatural dark fantasy from the award-winning author of 'Angel Of Ruin', 'The Resurrectionists' and 'The Infernal'.
Christine Starlight has never forgotten the best friend of her childhood, the strange, red-haired Mayfridh, whom she believes was murdered 25 years ago. Mayfridh has just remembered Christine and for a short time the human world and faery are in conjunction. Abducted by the barren king and queen of a Germanic faeryland, Mayfridh has since grown up and succeeded to the throne of the Autumn Castle, lonely and reliant on the counsel of the wolf Eisengrimm.
In the meantime, Christine has endured chronic pain from an accident, with only the small consolation of her patient partner Jude, who has brought her to an artist's colony in Berlin. When Mayfridh decides to come looking for her childhood friend, she finds Jude first and falls instantly and madly in love with him. With the help of the witch Hexebart, she learns Jude's dread secret.
But it isn't merely jealousy and secrets that could tear them all apart. Watching over them is the cruel but brilliant billionaire Immanuel Z, a murderer who is gathering faery bones for a grand sculpture . . .
