Months after fleeing back to Los Angeles, Princess Meredith NicEssus is resuming casework at the Grey Detective Agency alongside her Sidhe lovers when a Seelie exile turned movie star hires her to perform a fertility ritual for her dying human husband. The job reopens old wounds fast: one of Merry's companions lies gravely hurt and can only be healed at a steep price from the Demi-Fey queen, while a nameless, banished horror has slipped loose in the human world. All the while, the Seelie King Taranis is taking an unwelcome new interest in Merry. The second novel in Laurell K. Hamilton's Meredith Gentry series.
