Once she was a tailor in Boston, but now she has crossed from Earth to the Barrow-lands, a Faerie world embroiled in a bloody civil war between Seelie and Unseelie. Armed with an enchanted and malevolent staff which seeks to bend her to its dark will, and thrust into a deadly realm where it’s hard to distinguish friend from foe, Lara is sure of one thing: her love for Dafydd ap Caerwyn, the Faerie prince who sought her help in solving a royal murder and dousing the flames of war before they consumed the Barrow-lands.But now Dafydd is missing, perhaps dead, and the Barrow-lands are closer than ever to a final conflagration. THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE—IF IT DOESN’T KILL YOU FIRST Lara Jansen is a truthseeker, gifted—or cursed—with the magical ability to tell honesty from lies. Lara has no other choice: she must harness the potent but perilous magic of the staff and her own truthseeking talents, blazing a path to a long-forgotten truth—a truth with the power to save the Barrow-lands or destroy them.

And perhaps, for that very reason, it didn't appeal to me either. It's not that the writing is bad, it's C. E. Murphy, there's no way her writing can be bad. And it's not even that the plot. The plot is fast-paced, strong and compelling. As I said in my review of the first book, the problem, for me, likes in the characterization of the characters of the novel.I just don't like them.
