By day, she catalogs the fae relics of her conquered kingdom. But by night, she reclaims the artefacts in secret to restore magic to her dying land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUntil she finds the long-lost key to cross the River into the fae world and save her people. But a ruthless realm awaits her there, ruled by monsters wearing beautiful skin—especially the cold-eyed captain who sees through her lies. But even he isn't what he seems—under the guise of upholding a cruel regime, he works to overthrow it from the inside. To succeed, he needs the same lost relic Yaseema seeks: the crown of an ancient Fae Queen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith magic that is a mystery even to her, Yaseema can help him find the crown and save his family from a fate worse than death.
