A love greater than a human life - the love for a fairy. But Iliân, a prince in one of the countless fairy realms, does not know that his brother is also immortal and in love with Oliâ. This becomes his downfall: Iliân is banished to another world, our world. Oliâ can follow him but must not reveal herself to him. Otherwise, they would be separated forever. Desperate, Iliân searches for a way back to his realm, a way back to Oliâ. He knows he needs proof - proof of the existence of his world, of his love. The search for evidence takes Iliân from Paris in the late 1930s, where he adopts the name Joshua Perle, to our present day. But will a lifetime be enough to find his way back? A story about the power of love and storytelling. A masterpiece by the French bestselling author: as thrilling as a crime novel, poetic.
