Niamh Farren carried the burden of knowledge for most of her life. One of the seven faeries born into the world of humans with the ability to open the gates to the faerie world, Niam directs the other faeries onto the right path. For Niamh saw what would happen to the world of men if it did not protect the gate. She traveled the world with her brother Ronan for years, using visions to look for faeries and convince them to follow a path where they don't open the gates. She sacrificed a lot, but... when she lost her brother on the mission, she began to lose herself. For almost one hundred and fifty years, the werewolf Kiyo roamed the planet as a lost soul. Cursed to live forever, he spent a terrible eternity as a mercenary. When Fionn Mor tells the truth about the world of faerie and hires Kiyo to defend one of the faeries, he accepts the challenge from boredom, not heroism. But Niamh was not what the werewolf expected. To protect Niamh from enemies is not as difficult as to protect the faerie from itself. If Kiyo wants to succeed, he needs to help Niam find himself, and not only for her sake. He can no longer ignore the strong connection between them. A new enemy on the horizon, threatening to open the gates between the worlds. To remind Niamh who she is, Kiyo must find the strength to open up to her, to give himself over to the connection. Or further to protect your heart... bringing the world of people to war by this.
