Synopsis

Negotiating with the Fair Folk is a tightrope walk over deadly perils. And even the most skilled can misstep.

The many wondrous realms the Fair Folk inhabit offer tempting opportunities for mortals hoping to benefit from faerie magic. But making bargains with the Fair Folk is a dangerous business, for the fae have a habit of leaving loopholes to snare the unwary. Father-and-daughter lawyers Abe and Adira have made a career out of helping their fellow humans reach such agreements safely.

Abe and Adira know the rules for dealing with Fair Folk: don't reveal your true name, don't say thank you, don't accept gifts, don't eat fae food, don't tell even the slightest of lies . . . . Oh, and always, no matter the provocation, be unfailingly polite.

A moment of carelessness, a brief lapse, and a professional defender of mortal interests may be in dire need of rescue.

"Regardless of the underlying topic or genre, [Wyle's] ability to build evocative worlds and populate them with fully three-dimensional characters is always a marvel to me. . . . The story is a marvelous one that hinges on ideas of family and freedom and finding yourself, and it is clothed in the type of magical imagery and creative world-building that I've come to realize are hallmarks of her storytelling." -- Vine Voice reviewer
