Her life takes another turn when she stumbles upon an injured faerie knight in the woods. Kaye has always been able to see faeries where others could not, and she chooses to save the strange young man instead of leaving him to die.
But this fateful choice will have more dire consequences than Kaye could ever predict, as she soon finds herself the unwilling pawn in an ancient and violent power struggle between two rival faerie kingdoms -- a struggle that could very well mean her death.
