eBook Description: In a magic forest where deep shadows pulse around the surfaces of lace-veined leaves, and night blooms ripple in shades of swirling indigo, there is an enchanted castle. Courtiers, pages, cooks, and stable boys slumber as stil as death, and a golden princess laguishes in her rose-strewn bower, waiting for her Prince Charming. But the princess sleeps with a black wood stake through her heart, and her petal-soft lips conceal a pair of razor fangs. Is the prince her savior or ill-fated prey, lured to sinister purpose by a night fiend ruling a castle of the damned? This is not the fairy tale you remember...

"Foster's got this style, this way of phrasing that makes you ... get lost in the flow of her words."--C. Dennis Moore, Epinions.com

Within the castle proper, cobwebs hung heavy. They brushed like moth wings against Jiri's face and he waded through them like a swimmer in a murky sea. Pale cadavers crowded every clear space. Men in armor reclined on armchairs, cooks slumped over cutting tables, and maidservants curled before the cold, dead hearth. Another unnatural puzzle, these people were wholly unlike the strewn skeletons outside, for though deathly still, their flesh was hale and clean, untouched by putrefaction. There was a great wonder to it all. And a great sadness.
