A Royal Invitation. A dead dwarf. Punkin at the Fae Royal Palace?
The Queen of the Fae is ready to officially name her daughter heir to the crown. It's an event Ebrel can't miss. Especially as it's a chance to finally meet her aunt, the fae queen. But, with a liability like Punkin along, can Ebrel risk another unfortunate incident involving the fuzzbutt, his addiction to coffee beans, and the queen's fancy dress?
That becomes the least of Ebrel and Elain's worries when they find the queen's minister of faerocks inspecting the gravel below the ministry's balcony up close. Very much too close. And, a special visitor from St. Maurice, California is a very likely suspect in the minister's unexpected plunge.
In addition to investigating the murder, Ebrel has to dodge a pesky Minister who insists on giving her etiquette lessons, while Punkin is sidelined in a way only Punkin could manage.
But, there's a deeper mystery brewing than any of them suspect. Add in a handsome mysterious stranger that attracts Ebrel's eye, and her world is definitely a royal mess.
Can Ebrel and the gang stop the plot from boiling over before another of the queen's ministers perishes?
