Molly McCormack has a knack for getting into trouble. Just ask the playground monitor Mrs. Meeney who is wearing out the school hallways dragging Molly to the principal's office. Molly has a rap sheet longer than any previous student of Saint Bernadette's. A dubious honor, but an honor nonetheless. All that pales in comparison to the new adventure Molly has set out for. Enlisting her some-time friend and childhood annoyance Conor Doyle, Molly and Conor decide to investigate a mysterious expanse of wood that has survived on her family's property for centuries. Lost children, mysterious sightings, and mournful wails can all be traced back to these woods, ominously referred to as "The Moat". What no one knows, and what Molly and Conor are about to discover is that sheltered within the protective wood of the Moat is the gateway to the legendary Tír na nÓg: The Land of Eternal Youth. Now suddenly Molly and Conor are encountering Merrows, Banshees, Faeries, and Pookas, none of whom are happy upon their arrival. A murder is discovered and a prophetic book goes missing. Accusing fingers are pointed their way. They have to act fast to clear their names and find the legendary book for as each day passes without the book recovered, inhabitants of Tír na nÓg are vulnerable to sorrow, sickness, and even death. ***************** Constructive comments welcome.
