Synopsis

Smoky Barnable journeys to a mysterious country house called Edgewood to marry Daily Alice Drinkwater, entering into a multigenerational family whose lives are intimately entangled with the world of faerie. As decades pass and the Tale that governs the family unfolds, the boundaries between the human world and the realm of the fairies grow ever thinner.
