(starred review) "Juxtaposing the world of Faery with the modern one is common in Urban Fantasy, so you may be tempted to overlook a book that relies on the device. But skipping Rosemary and Rue would be a sad mistake. First-time novelist McGuire reminds us that even in an overused setting, a well-told story with memorable characters casts magic all on its own." Publisher's noteRetreating into the human world after being rejected by her Faerie family, half-fae changeling Toby finds her anonymity compromised by the murder of a high-profile countess who binds her to investigate, a situation that forces Toby to resume her fae position among dubious companions. Original. October "Toby" Daye, a changeling who is half human and half fae, has been an outsider from birth. After getting burned by both sides of her heritage. Toby has denied the Faerie world, retreating to a "normal" life. Unfortunately for her, the Faerie world has other ideas... The murder of Countess Evening Winterrose pulls Toby back into the fae world. Unable to resist Evening's dying curse, which binds her to investigate, Toby must resume her former position as knight errant and renew old alliances. As she steps back into fae society, dealing with a cast of characters not entirely good or evil, she realizes that more than her own life will be forfeited if she cannot find Evening's killer. AnnotationAfter her last case ended badly and she ended up in a Japanese fish pond for more than a decade, October Daye swore off dangerous PI work and things with a "faery" veneer. But she can't resist a chance to track down a missing Countess and get her Fae hands dirty again. This debut by Seanan McGuire adds a dynamic new voice and a captivating new heroine to the urban fantasy mix.
