FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE WOLF AND THE
WOODSMAN AND JUNIPER AND THORN 'A love letter to stories - and to
everyone silenced or forgotten in their retelling.' Allison Saft,
author of A Far Wilder Magic. Effy has always believed in fairy
tales. She's had no choice. Since childhood, she's been haunted by
visions of the Fairy King. She's found solace only in the pages of
Angharad - a beloved epic about a mortal girl who falls in love
with the Fairy King, and then destroys him. Effy's tattered copy is
all that's keeping her afloat through her stifling first term at
her prestigious architecture college. So when the late author's
family announces a contest to design his house, Effy feels certain
this is her destiny. But Hiraeth Manor is an impossible task: a
musty, decrepit estate on the brink of crumbling into a hungry sea.
And when Effy arrives, she finds she isn't the only one who's made
a temporary home there. Preston Héloury, a stodgy young literature
scholar, is studying Myrddin's papers and is determined to prove
her favourite author is a fraud. As the two rival students
investigate the reclusive author's legacy, piecing together clues
through his letters, books, and diaries, they discover that the
house's foundation isn't the only thing that can't be trusted.
There are dark forces, both mortal and magical, conspiring against
them - and the truth may bring them both to ruin.
