The Fey are gone…and with them all mystery and magic. At least that is how it seems to all who live in the human world. Penheram is a quaint, sleepy English village where people go to escape the modern world. Which is exactly what failing writer, Ella, sometimes called mouse, is doing. Yet everything changes with the arrival of an unusual shapeshifting thief. Meanwhile in far off New Zealand a child grows into a world-changing woman, but such power comes with great risk to all around her. As the two women’s stories draw to a close, everyone will learn that not all that is lose is gone, and no secret can be kept forever.
