A girl wakes up on the side of a river, remembering nothing of who she is or where she's been. Her only clue to her previous existence is a note: "Your name is Bethany Grey."
As it turns out, she's wandered into the courts of Faerie, which are beautiful as they are dangerous.

Something that she needs to remember.
And as the Solstice approaches, her time grows shorter...
