Not all legends are fairy tales. When Maeve follows her estranged friend, Lorcan, she discovers that life and death are not so separate. Lorcan reels from the sudden loss of his parents but has found a cure for his loneliness... a way to commune with the dead. Not only that, but the veil between worlds is thinning and the Otherworld has begun to overlap with our own. A new mythical cycle is on the horizon. Maeve, Lorcan and Oisin become embroiled in a struggle between the ancient powers of the Tuatha Dé Dannan and the Fomóire as they play their role in things to come. All the while, unseen hands manipulate from the shadows. Perception is everything.
