But Tate won't keep quiet, won't keep the pact. It's the great taboo, the unspoken pact: Gentry's prosperity is maintaned by it, but its children pay the price. But despite Mackie's obvious suffering, the issue is buried, always skirted around and never truly faced. And changelings don't live long in the human world. Mackie is a Replacement, a fey, a changeling. His friends know it - especially his best friend Roswell, the most loyal friend a person could ever have. It's getting more and more difficult to avoid the truth. His allergies to blood and steel are getting worse and worse and his health is beginning to fail. People are getting nervous and it just won't stop raining. Recently, however, things have felt less secure. People are good and kind and the trials and tribulations of other places have traditionally been absent from Gentry. Mackie lives in Gentry, a prosperous but quiet town.
