Feyling Duplicity ~ Synopsis

Charlotte McBride is a seemingly typical ten-year old living amongst the greens of Ireland, with an abusive and spiteful caretaker. Charlotte realizes nothing in her life is what it seems—including her own name—when she discovers she’s a Faery. A Feyling, in fact, the most unique and powerful of all Earth Guardians. Rage and vengeance consumes her when she further learns she was abducted as a child, shortly after her mother’s murder. A search for answers exposes an unexpected enemy, and their thousand year-old conspiracy to replace Faeries as guardians of the earth.

Fifteen-years later Charlotte leaves the comfort and security of her realm to meet this enemy on their own ground. Searching the mortal world of London, she soon finds herself entangled in a web of lust and deceit with the very enemy she vowed to destroy. It soon becomes a race against time when Charlotte learns she alone holds the key to their future, and how patiently they’ve awaited her arrival. Can those she loves reach her in time to help put an end to the conspiracy? Or will Charlotte awaken her unique power in order to face off with her abductor and her mother's killer, in what could be a one-on-one battle for earthen supremacy.



My editor had this to say about Feyling Duplicity:

"An attractive story line. Some wonderful characters. Vividly presented settings that feel quite real, whether they are or not. The London presented might be completely fictional [...] but it sure is believable in the book, and that’s all that matters."

"Emotional dilemmas, drama, action—much of it psychological, but just enough physical—are good. Compressed time frames work very well. The intense time in London is only a week, but feels much longer, which is of course the point. […] Every reader has experienced something like that, and will be drawn into it."
