She's a wanted criminal, but he doesn't have to know that. Piper's job is simple. Take the children. Don't get caught. The rules she binds on herself, however... Well, they're a tad more complicated. Kidnapped as a child for her connection with the Old Magic-the one that grants her the ability to enchant others with her music-Piper knows good and well the rules of the Coup, the underground organization intent on bringing down the fae regime. As the Coup's first "recruiter, " she's supposed to take the strong, the good-boned, the clever, the healthy. Except Piper doesn't always do what she's supposed to. Instead, she makes a few rules of her own. Like how she only takes the children who need taking-the children who suffer harm and neglect in their current homes, the ones who come with her willingly. The children for whom a life bound in service to the Coup would be a mercy. But when a deadly oversight leaves Piper injured, stranded in the forest, and unable to protect the no-nonsense child to whom she's promised a better life, she's left with no other choice. She strikes a bargain with a handsome archer whose aim is almost as deadly as his past. Oh, but there's another rule too. Don't fall in love. Especially not with a human who has no idea who Piper really is. Fast-paced and action-packed, this second installment in The Severed Realms series transports the reader across Alondria to Avelea, a kingdom full of wicked forest faeries, underground rebellions, and a king with a secret of his own. A Tune to Make Them Follow is the second book in a series of interconnected fairytale retellings. This book can serve as a standalone, or as an entry point into the series.
