A Novel of the Fae
In this gothic fantasy novel, a Victorian missionary named Catherine Helstone ventures into the mysterious and perilous land of Arcadia, the realm of the Fae, in search of her brother Laon, who has gone missing while attempting to convert the fae to Christianity. As Catherine navigates the enigmatic and treacherous world, she encounters bizarre landscapes, cryptic fae politics, and theological dilemmas that challenge her faith and understanding of reality.
