NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • When mysterious faeries from other realms appear at her university
curmudgeonly professor Emily Wilde must uncover their secrets before it’s too late in this
heartwarming enchanting second installment of the Emily Wilde series. Emily Wilde is a genius
scholar of faerie folklore who just wrote the world’s first comprehensive encyclopaedia of
faeries. She’s learned many of the secrets of the Hidden Ones on her adventures . . . and also
from her fellow scholar and former rival Wendell Bambleby. Because Bambleby is more than
infuriatingly charming. He’s an exiled faerie king on the run from his murderous mother and in
search of a door back to his realm. And despite Emily’s feelings for Bambleby she’s not ready
to accept his proposal of marriage: Loving one of the Fair Folk comes with secrets and dangers.
She also has a new project to focus on: a map of the realms of faerie. While she is preparing
her research Bambleby lands her in trouble yet again when assassins sent by his mother invade
Cambridge. Now Bambleby and Emily are on another adventure this time to the picturesque
Austrian Alps where Emily believes they may find the door to Bambleby’s realm and the key to
freeing him from his family’s dark plans. But with new relationships for the prickly Emily to
navigate and dangerous Folk lurking in every forest and hollow Emily must unravel the
mysterious workings of faerie doors and of her own heart. Book Two of the Emily Wilde Series
