These are the first and second stories of Robin Archer, the half-Fae charged by the Fairy Queen to protect human children from human predators. With snark, a gun, and a touch of magic, Robin works at the edge of human law to save kids.

AND ONLY THE EYES OF CHILDREN: When a child is abducted, the police can't act fast enough to save her. Robin Archer can. (This Pushcart Prize-nominated story was originally published in FAE.)

<i>"I'm neither human nor monster, yet both. Unlike most survivors, my freak doesn't show so obviously. I can pass on a human street, even if I can't in the Twilight Lands.
"That doesn't mean it doesn't affect me, though."</i>
