Haunted by a desperate past and the need to provide for her family, nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, only to discover it was a Fae. As punishment, a terrifying, beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution. He drags Feyre across the wall into the magical, treacherous land of Prythian, a realm she's only known from human legends. Here, she learns her captor is Tamlin, the High Lord of the Spring Court, one of the immortal Fae, and she is expected to live out her days in his luxurious but isolated estate. As Feyre's initial fear and hostility slowly transform into a passionate connection, she begins to uncover the truth of a creeping, ancient blight that threatens both the Fae and human worlds. She must navigate a web of secrets, intrigue, and dark magic to save Tamlin and his court, and ultimately, herself, from a fate far worse than death.
