Rodrig Wishard is a killer, a thief and a liar. He's a fighting man who prefers to solve his problems with his sword. In a world without government or law, where a man's only loyalty is to his family and faerie tales are strictly for children, Rodrig Wishard is not happy to discover that he's carrying faerie blood. Something his family neglected to tell him. Not only that but he's started to see faeries for real. If he's going to make any sense of it he's going to have to go right to the source - the faeries themselves. But that's easier said than done when the only information he has to go on is from bards and myth.
