Book description
You know me. I am Meredith Gentry, princess and heir apparent to
the throne in the realm of Faerie; one-time private investigator in
the mortal world.
To be crowned queen, I must continue the royal bloodline - I must
produce an heir. To fail would allow my aunt, Queen Andais, do what
she most desires: to place her twisted son, Cel, upon the throne of
Faerie...and kill me.
I am surrounded by loyal guards, my best loved - sworn to protect
and to love me - yet for all our eager efforts, I remain childless. My
sinister Queen and her confederates conspire against me and so my
bodyguards and I have slipped back into Los Angeles. But it seems
exile is not enough to escape those with dark designs upon us. King
Taranis, vainglorious ruler of Faerie's Seelie court, has accused my
guards of a heinous crime and asked the mortal authorities to pursue
them. If he succeeds, my men will face a hideous fate. I know
Taranis's charges are baseless - for his true target is me. He tried
to kill me when I was a child. Now I fear his intentions are far more terrifying...
