Talin and Clay were close when they were children. But they were separated after Clay protected Talin from her foster father.

20 years after they were separated, Talin helps children in need. When some of her children disappear, she asks Clay for help.

I like that Humans have a larger part in this book than the previous books (that mostly focused on Psy and Changeling characters). It adds another dimension to the world. I also like the introduction of The Forgotten into the series.

I didn't like the fact that Clay was so upset with Talin when she admitted to sleeping around. He wasn't mean about it, and It's more complicated than him just being a jerk (she pretended to be dead and, when she was still very messed up from her childhood abuse, she slept around; he slept with a few women, but he thought that she was dead at the time). But, even with the nuance, I still don't think that he had the right to be as upset as he was by it.

Just a warning, child abuse is a major theme in this book.

Original review:
I really like Talin and Clay, they are so sweet together. This is one of my favorite Psy-Changeling books.
