Koschei the Deathless has been chained beneath a lake in the mountains for longer than anyone can remember, which is not the same thing as being finished with. His reach is spreading again across the Fae territories, and it is finding willing hands: there are powers that never accepted the loss of the human lands and would like them back. The Night Court is not going to watch that happen from a distance, but standing in the way requires an alliance, and an alliance requires people who are currently not speaking to each other.
Prythian is still pulling itself together after the Hybern War, and the inner circle has come out of recent betrayals and revelations looking at one another differently. The rifts are not political, they are personal, and the book is honest about how much harder those are to close. The fight is coming whether the court is ready or not, and the title is not a metaphor: before anything can be rebuilt out there, the splintered thing inside the Night Court has to be put back together.
