Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries
Emily Wilde #1 by Heather Fawcett
She came to write a book—she found a village, a rival, and the secrets of the Folk.

Cambridge professor Emily Wilde is the world’s leading expert in faerie folklore. Brilliant, bookish, and a touch antisocial, she’s determined to complete the first-ever encyclopaedia of the Folk. Her latest fieldwork brings her to the remote northern village of Hrafnsvik—a place where superstition and snow run deep, and the fae are far more dangerous than she expected.

Emily prefers books to people and solitude to small talk. But Hrafnsvik has other plans for her—including the arrival of her insufferably charming academic rival, Wendell Bambleby. With his easy charm and a penchant for meddling, Bambleby is the last person Emily needs… especially as her research draws her closer to uncovering the truth about the hidden Folk—and the secrets Wendell might be hiding himself.

"Some doors, once opened, cannot be closed. Some names, once spoken, cannot be forgotten."
