The veil between fairyland and our world is thinner on Prospect Hill, and Alaine's family has always bargained with the Fae: silk and silver to reverse luck or a coin and a sheath to keep the rain away. Her grandmother warned them to never wander from the approved bargains. But when Alaine's problems grow, no longer content to summon rain for the harvest or a good crop, she creates a fairy ring to summon the Fae to her, face to face. As her courage grows, she stretches the bounds of what she thought possible, until the day her sister steps into the fairy ring to rid herself of her abusive husband. The consequences threaten to destroy them all.
Alaine's fierce, willing to do whatever it takes to save her struggling orchard and protect her family. Delphine's sympathetic, as the new society wife struggling to find a place in a society that shuts its doors on her. The fairies add a level of intrigue that keeps the reader guessing.
This delightful fantasy brings the fantastic and the scary right to the doorstep of a homey rural community. It also makes me wish I could bargain with fairies!… (meer)
