Not when she gets tricked into participating in the Underworld's version of the Irish Harvest Games. Winning the games becomes not just life and death, but a matter of saving her soul. While recruiting her friend, Quinn, to be the first Eastern Hemisphere Magistrate, Abigail and her partner, Lincoln, are trapped in the Underworld by Áine, Queen of the Fae. Forced to participate in the harvest games so she can leave the Underworld, Abigail receives help from an unlikely source, Myrddin. He is the basis of the ancient legends of Merlin, the great wizard. Abigail, a wielder of magic herself, is mesmerized by the great man, but he has secrets too. She has to decide if his help and affections are genuine or just another Fae trick. She faces a self-absorbed queen, a death goddess and a distracted partner.
