Ryheart is a low-rank member of the hunter’s guild, removing minor pests for little profit; a role far from the heroic quests he had dreamt of. Desperately in need of coin, he stumbles across a mysterious fae within the cobbled streets of Londaya. The benign creature makes a deal with him; if he provides her shelter, she will help with his money problems. Surely, he thinks, such a simple deal can’t go wrong?

Unwittingly he finds himself tied to Fali, the mysterious creature, and is dragged into a dangerous world of magic he is scant prepared to deal with. Can he trust his strange new companion and find a way out of the danger he finds himself in? Or will he fall victim to creatures he never even imagined before the debt collectors can even find him?
