If you are a fantasy fan, like suspense, and appreciate a muted story of romance, this is the novel for you.
It starts off with a wraith on the run....a female thief trying to avoid a man and his hound on her heels. She does not understand how she became known....she is invisible.
The story behind why she is running, what she stole, and where she is going is amazing, heartwrenching. Then there are the creatures - four of them - magical ones for each of the elements, and cruel each in their own way.
The characters are rich and relatable. The wraith and her brother, the man she stole from and his sister, and the stories from which they came, are all amazingly written. The writing is poetic, as well. It is a memorable story, and this is actually the second time I've read it.
P.S. There is treasure. And murder.
