A Local Habitation

In the enthralling second installment of the October Daye series, changeling knight Toby Daye finds herself drawn into a sinister web of intrigue within the glamorous yet perilous Faerie court of Fremont, California. Sent by her liege, Duke Sylvester, to check on his reclusive niece, Countess January O'Leary, Toby expects a simple babysitting assignment. However, upon her arrival in the County of Tamed Lightning, she discovers a far more grim reality: people close to January are being systematically murdered. Toby, uniquely gifted with the ability to read history from blood, must navigate treacherous fae politics and unmask a cunning killer before she herself becomes the next victim. As the body count rises and the stakes become personal, Toby races against time to protect January and unravel a conspiracy that threatens to shatter the fragile peace of the fae world, all while confronting the lingering trauma of her own past.
