Opis

Volume 4 of the Ess and Oz adventures Fairies. We've all heard about them, right? Flitting from flower to flower, friends to the ladybirds, all those nursery rhyme lies invented by the Victorians. Go back further in history, and you learn the truth. Haven't you ever wondered why a brain embolism is called a stroke? Why people who are 'touched' are 'away with the fairies'? Why you never take a baby for a stroll without stale bread in his pocket and iron around his neck? Ess discovers the truth about fairies and their power when she is hired to track down Daisy, the country's most sought-after and mercurial model. She navigates her way through politics, nobility and the fashion industry seeking after the truth and apologising for the wreckage that always follows her partner in crime, Oz. But this time she's putting much more than her life on the line, she's risking her sanity and that of those she holds most dear.
