Merridy has always loved music but can't sing. The only job in the music business he can get is as a security guard for the Bard and Sons, a premier record label. He keeps their secrets and patrols their hallways, always wishing for a big break he knows will never come.

Changeling's Court is a brand new band struggling to record their first single. Merridy chances upon a scrap of their lyrics without accompanying music notes and can't help composing a simple melody for them. If he's found out, he'll probably get fired.

Instead, he finds himself in a strange new world of magic and faeries-and danger.
