Publisher Comments:

Finally available in the U.S., this Canadian bestseller is a romantic and atmospheric tale of two teenage girls caught in the world of Faerie.

When she arrives in Ireland to visit her cousin Findabhair, American Gwen expects a fun backpacking trip to sites of the fairy lore they're both fascinated with. What neither cousin knows is that it's the summer of the Hunter's Moon, a dangerous time for mortals to meddle in the kingdom of Faerie. The girls camp out, and deep in the night Finn is kidnapped by the handsome Faerie king! In Gwen's quest to save her cousin, across beautifully evoked settings of modern-day and mystical Ireland, the spunky heroine's biggest challenge may be convincing Finn she needs to be saved!

This is the first in a much-lauded, bestselling series from Canada by O. R. Melling, praised as "great stuff, beautifully told" by the Toronto Sun. It's been updated and expanded — and is perfect for teen girls who like the work of Anne Rice, Holly Black, and Annette Curtis Klause.
