Claire has spent her entire life in the faerie realm practicing forbidden human magic. When a fae assassin is sent to kill her, she survives by doing the unthinkable--speaking his true name and binding the very predator meant to kill her. 

​

Now, with an unwilling fae accomplice by her side, she is forced into a deadly search for the truth. In a world full of immortals who never die (the fae always return one year and one day after they are slain) Claire has to keep herself alive long enough to learn why these immortals want her gone, and how to stop them. 

​

But magic always has a price, and immortality has one flaw: Any fae who falls in love can die...forever. 

​

As ancient lies unravel and old magic stirs, Claire is confronted with a conspiracy that will force her to decide if this world is worth saving. And in a land where every corpse rises again, the only thing that can be buried for good is the heart.
