The dreamers walk among us . . . and so do the dreamed. Those who dream cannot stop dreaming–they can only try to control it. Those who are dreamed cannot have their own lives–they will sleep forever if their dreamers die. Ronan Lynch is a dreamer. He can pull both curiosities and catastrophes out of his dreams and into his compromised reality. Carmen Farooq-Lane is a hunter. Her brother was a dreamer . . . and a killer. She has seen what dreaming can do to a person. And she has seen the damage that dreamers can do. But that is nothing compared to the destruction that is about to be unleashed. . .

In their last summer before college, twins Alec and Walker Holland leave the city to live with their rural cousins. There, they confront underlying familial tension, their diverging paths, and the devastating consequences of both.

In un mondo etereo, il destino degli amanti può sfidare il loro amore? La sedicenne Deirdre Monaghan è una musicista timida ma prodigiosamente dotata. Il suo mondo ruota intorno a un ristretto nucleo familiare, un amico del cuore e la passione per la musica irlandese. Quando un misterioso e affascinante ragazzo sbucato dal nulla entra nella sua ordinaria vita di città, Deirdre se ne innamora all’istante. Il problema è che l’enigmatico e contraddittorio Luke si rivela un ‘gallowglass’ – un assassino senz’anima – e Deirdre, che nel frattempo capisce di essere una ‘cloverhand’, ossia una che può vedere le Fate, potrebbe essere la sua prossima vittima. Deirdre deve decidere se i sentimenti di Luke verso di lei sono veri, o se sono soltanto un modo per ingannarla e condurla più profondamente nel mondo delle Fate dove lui potrebbe tornare a uccidere. L’amore per Luke la costringerà presto a prendere coscienza dei propri poteri magici, ad approfondire le amicizie e gli affetti familiari, a cambiare il proprio sistema di relazioni e a farsi coinvolgere in una lotta all’ultimo respiro contro esseri che non avrebbe mai pensato di affrontare. La sua vita sarà così qualcosa di unico e irripetibile, qualcosa per cui vale la pena mettersi in gioco. Una lettura vibrante e potente, romantica e piena di colpi di scena, scritta da una tra le migliori autrici del momento.
