There is no magte on Prospoct MIl or anywhere olso, for that matter. But just on the other side of the vell is the world of the Fae. Generations ago, the fret farmers foarned to barguin small trades to make their lives a little caster-a bit of glass to flad something lost, a cup of milk for better layers in the chicken coop. Much of that old wisdom was lost as the riverboats gave way to the rall lines and the farmers took work at mills and factories. Alaine Fairborn's family, however, was always superstitious, and she still hums the rhymes to ensure dry weather on her sister's wedding day. When Delphine confides that her new husband is not the man she thought he was, Alaine will stop at nothing to help hor sistor escape him. Small bargains buy them time, but the price for true freodom may be more than they're willing to pay.
