Description

Sixteen-year-old Deirdre Monaghan is a shy but extraordinarily talented musician who discovers she possesses an extraordinary gift: the ability to see faeries. When a mysterious and captivating boy named Luke enters her ordinary suburban world, Deirdre finds herself drawn to him—only to learn he's a soulless faerie assassin bound by a deadly mission. As another dangerous dark faerie soldier, Aodhan, closes in with the same lethal purpose, Deirdre realizes she's caught in the crossfire of a centuries-old faerie war orchestrated by the Faerie Queen herself, who views Deirdre's magical music as a threat to her sovereignty. With her loyal best friend James by her side, Deirdre must navigate a treacherous world of Celtic faerie lore and ancient magic where trust is a luxury she can't afford. Maggie Stiefvater weaves a dark and enchanting fantasy that blurs the line between the mundane and the magical, delivering a haunting tale of music, danger, and the price of power.
