In the dystopian world of Fairfolke, no one is truly free. The land of fairytales becomes something much darker when a tyrannical High King comes into power, enforcing a strict caste system that divides the people of Fairfolke into three castes: Heroes, Peasants, and Villains. Moira Queenston never wanted to hurt anybody. The orphan daughter of two Peasants, all she hoped for was a simple life with her only friend, fellow orphan Peter. But everything Moira thought she knew changes when she finds herself declared a Villain and forced into a preparatory school built on hatred and fear. Now, Moira must learn to reconcile her own conscience with the choices before her, her only contact with Peter -- who was declared a Hero -- through the lens of her magic mirror. But deep beneath her shy, compliant nature, Moira is prepared to do anything to avoid the fate decided for her, even if that means losing the only person she's ever loved.
