Deri is an indentured apprentice to the merchant Maurlocke in the Untermarkt – the vast Goblin market somewhere beneath Covent garden in an alternate Victorian era London where magic is recognised (but there are treaties with the fae in place to limit its use. When Deri cuts a deal with a runaway princess he acquires her royal destiny, and extremely hot commodity that could get him into a lot of trouble if he’s not very very careful. It’s price could buy him his freedom from his master. He meets the man of his dreams, Owain, also indentured, but ‘topside’ to an unscrupulous factory owner, and becomes involved with labour politics, merchant deals and indenture issues. Previously only thinking of himself, Deri now has a wider ‘family’ to help. Read about twisty contracts, deals and more deals, m/m romance, dastardly workhouse owners and an unexpected resolution.
