    Pikey Thomas doesnâ€™t know how or why he can see the changeling girl. But there she is. Not in the cold, muddy London neighborhood where Pikey lives. Instead, sheâ€™s walking through the trees and snow of the ,enchanted Old Country or, later, racing through an opulent hall. Sheâ€™s pale and small, and she has branches growing out of her head. Her name ,is Henrietta Kettle. ,Pikeyâ€™s vision, it turns out, is worth something. ,Worth something to Hettieâ€™s brotherâ€”a brave adventurer named Bartholomew Kettle. Worth something to the nobleman who protects him. And Pikey is not above barteringâ€”Pikey will do almost anything to escape his past; heâ€™ll do almost anything for a life worth living. ,The faeriesâ€”save for a mysterious sylph and a mischievous cobble faery or twoâ€” have been chased out of London. Theyâ€™ve all gone north. The army is heading north, too. So Pikey and Bartholomew follow, collecting information, piecing ,together clues, searching for the doorway that will lead them to Hettie.,Â ,
