Earthshine: The Gilded Faery Chronicles Book Two - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A woman vanishes into Faery.
A husband stands accused of murder.
And beneath the hills of Elphame, ancient powers begin to stir.

Victorian England has never been kind to Elizabeth Merkova.

Long whispered about for her strange beliefs and uncanny visions, Elizabeth has spent years trying to convince the world—and her husband—that she is perfectly sane. But when one of her infant twins is stolen and replaced with a changeling, the fragile peace of her life begins to unravel.

Then Elizabeth disappears.

The village claims wolves dragged her into the woods. Others suspect darker things. With no body ever found, suspicion falls upon Nikolai Merkova—the grieving husband who had been preparing to send his troubled wife away to an asylum.

But Elizabeth is not dead.

Beyond the veil lies Elphame, a realm of perilous beauty ruled by rival Faery Queens, where bargains carry terrible prices and mortals seldom survive for long. Cast into its deadly wilds and hunted by one of the Unseelie Court’s most feared warriors, Elizabeth must navigate a world of ancient magic, shifting loyalties, and secrets older than memory itself.

Yet something within Elphame knows her.

As whispers of war spread through the Faery Courts and suspicion tightens around Nikolai in the mortal world, husband and wife are drawn toward truths neither realm was meant to uncover.

And somewhere in the darkness beyond the veil, a stolen child waits.

Earthshine is the haunting second installment in The Gilded Faery Chronicles—a Victorian fantasy steeped in folklore, Gothic atmosphere, dangerous enchantments, and faery court intrigue.
