This sequel to The Goblin Wood finds Jeriah of Rovanscourt trying to retrieve his brother, Tobin, from the otherworld. To do that, Jeriah makes a deal with some goblins and poses as the Hierarch's squire. Bell, long adept in portraying social systems and political intrigues, marries this talent with sympathetic characters struggling through challenges both external and internal.
