    O šestnáctileté Kaye Fierchové, harcující se po světě s matkou-rockerkou, se povídá, že je divná. Nechodí do školy, vede zvláštní řeči a ustavičně si vymýšlí báchorky, které jí nevěří ani její nejlepší kamarádka Janet. Když se však Kaye povede oživit kolotočového koně s ulámanýma nohama, uhranout Janetina kluka, poté natrefit na zraněného elfa a ještě jí na okno zaťukají skřítčí kamarádi z dětství, je nad slunce jasnější, že tu doopravdy něco nehraje. Bodláčnice, Loutnička a Špičák dívce prozradí, že k nim má blíž, než si sama myslí. Proto ji požádají, aby jim pomohla v boji s elfskými mocipány, neboť se naplnila sedmiletá lhůta a jejich národ musí o halloweenské noci přijetím Pekelné daně stvrdit své vazalství vůči kouzelnému dvoru Prokletých. Ale pokud by se Kaye odhodlala stát se obětinou, smlouva zůstane nenaplněna a skřítkové by získali svobodu. Dívka prosbu vyslyší a spolu s Janetiným starším bratrem Cornym pronikne do bezcitného světa Neviditelných, aby se o nich i o sobě dověděla víc. Jakou úlohu však hraje v téhle nemilosrdné říši záhadný Roiben, kterého zachránila před jistou smrtí a který je tak přitažlivý? Je celá hra na obětování vážně jenom jako, anebo navzdory všem skřítčím ujištěním začalo jít do tuhého, protože za celou záležitostí stojí kdosi mocnější a Kaye čeká boj o holý život v kulisách, jež jsme vyhradili snům a pohádkám?
