Part of The Iron Fey, book 7
First published 2015
Ethan Chase awakens from a month-long coma to discover the world has changed. The Veil separating humans from the fey realm was briefly torn away, giving mortals a glimpse of Faery. This exposure has thrown humanity into chaos and fed the Forgotten Queen with enough power to launch her war against the Summer and Winter courts. Leading her army is Keirran, the Iron Prince who betrayed his own family and left Ethan for dead. Keirran is Ethan's nephew and son of Iron Queen Meghan Chase. Now Ethan must defy his sister Meghan's wishes and team up with his girlfriend Kenzie to stop Keirran's rampage. The search for answers forces Ethan to make alliances with former enemies. The fate of both the human world and the Nevernever hangs in the balance as the Forgotten Queen's uprising threatens to destroy everything. Ethan faces an impossible choice between family loyalty and saving two worlds from destruction.
