520 $aEvery year when the deep cold of wintersets in, unbeknownst to humanity, dangerous visitors arrive from another world. Disguised as humans, the Nafikh move among us in secret, hungry for taste of our existence. Created by the Nafikh to tend to their every whim, servs are physically indistinguishable from humans but for the Source, the painful white-hot energy that both animates and enslaves them. Destined to live in pain, unaable to escape their bondage, they dwell in a bleak underworld where life is brutal and short. Lucy is a serv who arrived as a baby and by chance was adopted by humans. She's an outcast among outcasts, struggling to find a place where she truly belongs. But when the body of a serv child turns up and Lucy is implicated in the gruesome death, the worlds she's tried so hard to keep separate collide. Hounded by the police, turned upon by the servs who once held her dear, she must protect her family and the life she's made for herself.
