We've all heard the story of Snow White. A poisoned apple, a charmed kiss, and a huntsman who tries to steal her heart. But what if Snow White isn't the one you know? What if the huntsman isn't the one from the fairy tales? And what if the queen is more wicked that you ever thought? Rowan is a huntsman from Kilford, tied in a contract with the Queen that cannot be broken. When the Queen sends him to kill her estranged son. However, he meets Fan, a charming and annoying thief who claims that he can help Rowan find the Queen's son. Rowan is forced to grapple with his understanding of the world, and perhaps the understanding of his own heart. Can he kill who he's been sent to, or will it kill him to try?
