When fairy tales hide murder in their shadows... HUNTER, a cynical, world-weary tracker estranged from his past, returns to the magical kingdom of Faedon for the funeral of his grandmother, ROSE RED, the revered Head of the mysterious House of Red. Faedon is governed by seven distinct Houses - Wolf, Raven, Bear, Dragon, Gold, Crow, and Red - each tied to a unique magic, an animal Familiar, and a powerful ancestral Relic, all bound within a magical barrier raised a century ago to defeat the EVIL QUEEN. Hunter reunites with his childhood friends, RUBY RED (Grams' granddaughter and heir) and GARRICK SPRIGGINS (heir to the wealthy House of Gold), stirring unresolved feelings and the weight of his unexplained ten-year absence. The fragile peace is shattered when CORBIN CORVUS, the boisterous King of the Crows, is found brutally murdered - a "Thief's Death," a punishment unused since the Evil Queen's reign. Hunter is immediately the prime suspect: one of his signature silver daggers is found at the scene, and a witness (Corbin's daughter, ROBIN) saw him threatening the King just hours before. Arrested by the gruff SHERIFF NIGHTAN, Hunter is unexpectedly released by RAVEN DARKSHADOW, the ancient and powerful Witch Queen and Head of House Raven. Aware of Hunter's unique tracking skills (a rare Lupine ability), she hires him to find the missing Crow Relic, the Thief's Coin, believing its theft is linked to Corbin's murder and concerned about unrest among the ruling Houses. This uneasy alliance ties Hunter's freedom to solving the case. A darkly whimsical murder mystery set in a twisted fairy-tale world A reluctant hero tangled in magic, betrayal, and grim folktales Found family forged in shadows and danger Whodunit suspense with fairy-tale retelling twists (think Little Red Riding Hood meets murder noir). If you crave YA/adult fantasy with dark enchantment, an intricate mystery, fairy-tale vibes-and a hero who is anything but ready for your next obsession.
