October “Toby” Daye is finally doing fine. She’s settling into her new part as the Countess of Goldengreen; she’s actually dating again; she’s even agreed to take on Quentin as her formal squire. Life is normally looking up throughout – and that undoubtedly means it’s time for what to take a switch for the even worse. Someone has kidnapped the sons of Duchess Dianda Lorden, regent from the Undersea Duchy of Saltmist. To prevent a battle between property and ocean, Toby must not only discover the missing males, but about One Sodium Sea also verify how the Queen of the Mists was not behind their abduction. She’ll need all her methods and the help of all her allies if she really wants to make it through this without trouble. Toby’s search will take her in the streets of SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA to the lands under the waves, and her deadline is usually company: she must find the young boys in three days’ period, or all of the Mists will pay the purchase price. But somebody is determined to stop her – and whoever it is isn’t playing by Oberon’s Laws and regulations… As the battle grows more and more personal, one thing can be chillingly obvious. When Faerie would go to war, not everyone will leave.
