Bartholomew Kettle couldn’t save his sister. He watched her be pushed through the door between worlds, into the icy forest of faery. He saw her take someone’s hand. And he promised that he would find her. But what if he can’t? And what if the sinister forces who were hunting them both haven’t given up, but are just biding their time?
Stefan Bachmann spins a consuming tale of magic, of good and evil, of family, and of figuring out where you belong.
