Although the story ends abruptly (a series is planned), Tiki is an admirable heroine in an enjoyable tale. Kiki lives near Seattle, though she dreams of living in London one day. She believes in magic and the idea of hidden worlds co-existing with our own. Hamilton wears her literary inspirations (Oliver Twist Cinderella) on her sleeve as she melds disparate elements into a cohesive whole. Kiki Hamilton is the award-winning author of THE MIDNIGHT SPY, named One of the Best Books of 2015 by Kirkus Reviews and THE FAERIE RING series. /rebates/2fbook-search2fisbn2f97807653272222f&. Tiki wants to return the ring and collect the reward so she and her friends can leave the streets, but she is being hunted by faeries while a handsome and secretive thief tries to protect her. The ring is the key to peace with the faeries, and if the truce is broken, the fey will be free to hunt and drive out the humans who are encroaching on their land. When a beautiful bauble falls within her reach, Tiki grabs it and runs, only to learn the ring belongs to Queen Victoria and its loss has set off a dangerous chain of events. One December night, Tiki steals a ring, and sets off a chain of events that could lead to all-out war with the Fey. Orphaned and forced to flee her predatory uncle, 16-year-old Tiki has been squatting near Charing Cross Station and picking pockets to feed herself and her collected family of unwanted children. Hamilton’s debut gracefully mixes fantasy, Dickensian London, and a dash of romance.
