A feast will come, of carrion all...
Kenrig Ebermann has devoted her life to the pursuit of the unquiet dead, but when a chance encounter draws her into a bargain with the otherworldly Unseelie she faces a threat unlike any other. The dread spectres torment the living and the dead alike, and their presence heralds misfortune across the disparate Marches.
Aided by her apprentice Dandall she must find a way to free innocent souls from the Unseelie's strange feast, but Dandall is reeling from grief and his presence might just doom them both. Unknown to him, Dandall is the subject of prophecy and Kenrig is forced to question the tenuous trust between them.
The veil between life and death draws thin. The shadow of the Otherworld falls across a divided land.
