Sixteen-year-old Kaye Fierch is used to living out of suitcases and club basements, shadowing her mother’s chaotic rock band life. But after a violent attack, she returns to her childhood home in New Jersey—only to discover the dangerous secret that’s haunted her for years.
Kaye isn’t just a girl on the edge—she’s something other. And when she’s thrust into a centuries-old war between rival faerie courts, her blood becomes a weapon, her heart a liability, and her survival anything but certain.
Darkly seductive, brutally magical, and unapologetically sharp, Tithe is the first book in Holly Black’s Modern Faerie Tale series. Come for the gritty urban fantasy—stay for the vicious fae, impossible choices, and a heroine who refuses to bow to anyone.
