Maude has spent the last four seasons as the captive of a band of cut-throat robbers. Forced into slavery, her future seems dark indeed when the leader of the robbers, Grinning Jacob, decides that she will be his bride.
As winter draws in around her, Maude watches Jacob construct what is to be their marriage bed. Their wedding will be the day after it is completed, and it is so nearly finished. Maude can see no way out of the terrible fate awaiting her, until her path crosses that of a hungry water fairy, Peg Powler. With time running out and her life held in the fairy's hands, Maude is forced into a deadly deal that might save her life or end it.
Will Peg keep her promise? Can Maude free herself before the promised marriage becomes a hideous reality? Or will Grinning Jacob discover her plans and punish her in the most brutal way possible?
Maude can't be sure of anything, except that death and despair are haunting her steps. Her only ally is a hungry and capricious fairy, and she must use all her wits and cunning if she is to survive.
