Where myths awaken and shadows lurk, one woman’s quest for truth might just rouse ancient magic. Will Skye find the answers or awaken something even more dangerous?
BOGS, BREWS, AND BANSHEES
When Skye arrives in the picturesque coastal village of Ballybás in western Ireland, she’s hoping to leave behind a broken marriage and forge a new beginning. But her fresh start is immediately marred by a confrontation with an angry man named Tag, and a chilling discovery the very next night: Tag’s lifeless body, accompanied by eerie howls. Thrust into the heart of a murder mystery, Skye becomes a prime suspect, especially in the eyes of Donal McCarthy, the local Gard.
While seeking answers, Skye navigates the intricate weave of village gossip, fairytales, and strange occurrences — all with the elusive black cat, Faelan, guiding her steps. Yet, Faelan is no ordinary cat. His mystique deepens as he drops cryptic hints.
With legends of the dearg-due, a bloodsucker of lore, becoming alarmingly relevant, Skye is pulled into a whirlpool of suspicion and supernatural beliefs. The diary of her late grandmother unveils tales of fairies and magic intertwined with Ballybás’s history.
As Skye unravels the tapestry of myths and realities, she confronts familial ties, concealed truths, and a deadly vendetta. With danger at every turn, budding romantic tensions, and a village filled with more secrets than it seems, Skye is determined to uncover the real killer. But just as she believes the mysteries are laid to rest, an enigmatic whisper promises more shadowed adventures to come.
Will she find the truth before her own world is destroyed by paranoia and Otherworld creatures?
