(a Jack and and the Beanstalk Fairy tale re-telling)
A retired Giant-Hunter. A magical statue. A deal with the Fae Court thugs.
Jack has spent years developing his reputation as a renowned Giant-Hunter: the best, the fastest, the strongest. After a near fatal mission, he decides to retire from the game and move back in with his mother. But there, he's forced to face a harsh truth: they are deeply in debt to the deadly Fae Court. In a city where humans pay under the table to use dark magic, not paying often equals death. Their only option is to pawn the tairah, the magical statue responsible for Jack's abilities. But after a bad trade, Jack is forced back into the violent world of hunting giant fae.

And something... rather someone... has put him right in the crosshairs of danger: an intriguingly beautiful woman who seems to be in the exact same trouble as him.
