THE YEAR is 1877. When Talia Rose steps into a fairy ring as a child, her mother, Tate Rose, an outcast witch, signs a deal with a dark fae to delay Talia's inevitable surrender until her eighteenth birthday. A deal that will allow Talia to be taken into a 100-year sleep spell and imprisonment in the fairy realm. But as the eighteenth year draws closer, more and more settlements and wagon trains begin mysteriously disappearing, leaving Tate to wonder if her daughter's impending abduction is only one in dozens that could be linked to the wild Desert Folk. But why? Set against the bloody and brutal background of the American West, this gritty, pulp western retelling of the multi-cultural fairytale best known as "Sleeping Beauty" or "Briar Rose," is as twisted and dark as the origins deserve.
