Love lost. Love found. Love forever.

After three gruelling months in rehab following a botched undercover operation, police officer Drum is forced to rebuild his shattered life. When he’s offered a quiet reassignment as a Police Community Support Officer in the Derbyshire Peak District, he takes it. But hidden among the windswept hills and sleepy villages is the place where Drum was discovered as a lost child, the memories of his first ten years stolen from him. The only clues to his identity were a silver bracelet and a scrap of paper bearing his name. Two decades later, the mystery remains unsolved.

Across the Veil in Faeryland, Osian pays a painful price for his one month a year spent in the mortal realm. He’s driven by an unyielding longing for the boy who vanished from his life when they were ten years old. He knows the odds of finding Drum are almost impossible, but his heart refuses to let go. Osian is performing in a pub with a local band when Drum walks in. The recognition is instant for Osian, but not for Drum.

Strangers shouldn’t know the secrets buried inside Drum’s forgotten childhood. And they certainly shouldn’t wear a silver bracelet identical to his own. As impossible truths begin to unravel, Drum is forced to question everything he believes about his past, his identity, and the world itself. With danger closing in and time running out, Osian must convince Drum to trust him before the chance to reclaim what was stolen is lost forever.
