DescriptionQuicksilver by Callie Hart weaves a mesmerising tale set in a harsh, unforgiving desert land, where even a single glass of water can compel someone to great lengths. The story's protagonist, twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane, has lived her life in the shadows, hiding not just from society but also from herself. She conceals her astonishing powers and her secret life of thievery, stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs to survive.
Do not touch the sword. Do not turn the key. Do not open the gate.
This disciplined secrecy unravels when Saeris's path crosses with Death himself, an encounter that rips open the fabric between realms. Transported from the blazing heat of the desert to the chilling landscapes of a land filled with ice and snow, she stumbles into the world of the Fae—a place of myth and nightmares made real.
Saeris finds herself caught in the ancient, bitter conflicts of Yvelia, a land she knows nothing about but one that has been waiting for someone like her. As the first human in over a thousand years to walk its frozen mountains, she inadvertently bonds herself to Kingfisher, a grippingly enigmatic Fae warrior. Kingfisher has his own dark past, secrets, and ulterior motives. He needs her Alchemist's magic to protect his people, and he will go to any lengths to secure that power—even if it costs Saeris her life or her freedom.
Death, it appears, has a name: Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate. With a murky past and an abrasive demeanour, he is Saeris’s only hope of returning home. The reluctant partnership between them sparks a treacherous journey steeped in ancient magic, political intrigue, and secrets that could reshape entire worlds.
Be careful of the deals you make, dear child. The devil is in the details...

About the Author
Callie Hart is the author of the bestselling international phenomenon, Quicksilver, along with many other bestselling dark romance and dark academia titles. A British ex-pat now living abroad, Callie can most likely be found sequestered away in the corner of a library, fantasizing about exciting new realms and the brooding anti-heroes who occupy them.
She wouldn't think twice about striking a questionable bargain with a Fae warrior if the opportunity presented itself.More from Sci-Fi & Fantasy
