Synopsis
Cerise Mar and her unruly clan are cash poor but land rich, claiming a large swathe of the Mire, the Edge swamplands between Louisiana and the Weird. When her parents vanish, her family's long-time rivals are suspect number one, but the truth is more dangerous: two nations of the Weird, Louisiana and Adrianglia, are waging a cold war fought by feint and espionage, and their conflict is about to spill into the Edge and into Cerise's life. Her unexpected ally is William, the changeling soldier who appeared in On the Edge, forced back into service by Adrianglia's Mirror to track down a rival nation's spymaster, a man who has made the Mar family his instrument. Among the swamps, feuds and monsters of the Mire, the wolf changeling who distrusts his own nature and the clan's fierce head must decide how far to trust each other.
