When Milo is lured away from his quiet life by a mysterious Faery, he is not aware that the time of the tiend is nigh. In these dark times, one child must be chosen to fulfil the sacrifice to the Unseelie court. Pretty soon his dream of adventure is turned into a nightmare as he fights for his survival. When he finds an ally in the most unlikely of places, Milo decides to join forces with his captors to fight the evil of the Unseelie court and break the bonds of sacrifice forever.
In a magical and dangerous land, Milo finds himself with little chance of success and every chance of death. All he can do is try to find something inside of himself that he never knew was there. If he can find the will and courage to survive then he might break the shackles that has enslaved both human and Faery for centuries. If he fails it will mean doom for both races.
