To lick her wounds, she returns home to Seattle and tries to find comfort amidst family and friends. The memory of her mother’s long-ago disappearance makes finding comfort harder than she thought. When a daughter of the Royal Fairy Court turns up dead in an alley, Morgan goes against protocol and helps the local PCU team hunt down the killer before the fairy king takes matters into his own hands.
