KNIFE is no sugary-sweet faery princess. She's a fierce young upstart who is determined to get to the bottom of every secret at the Oakenwyld. And there are a lot of secrets. The faeries mysteriously lost their magic 2 generations ago‚ and their numbers have dwindled ever since. When Knife is named Hunter by the Queen‚ it's the perfect job. She can fly free‚ away from the stifling Oak. With each danger she faces - be it vicious crow or fox - she gets braver and bolder‚ the perfect skills for exploring how exactly the magic of her people was lost. When Knife secretly befriends Paul‚ a human teenage boy‚ her quest becomes all the more dangerous. The Queen has forbidden any contact with humans under the pretense of safety. But the more Knife learns from Paul the more she suspects the Queen may be dangerously mistaken or even worse‚ dangerously deceptive. Not knowing who she can trust‚ it's up to Knife to find out the secrets of the past so her people's future can be saved.
