About this listen
An evocative and charming novel full of secrets and mystery, from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lost Bookshop
In a quiet village in Ireland, a mysterious local myth is about to change everything…
One hundred years ago, Anna, a young farm girl, volunteers to help an intriguing American visitor translate fairy stories from Irish to English. But all is not as it seems and Anna soon finds herself at the heart of a mystery that threatens her very way of life.
In New York in the present day, Sarah Harper boards a plane bound for the West Coast of Ireland. But once there, she finds she has unearthed dark secrets – secrets that tread the line between the everyday and the otherworldly, the seen and the unseen.
With a taste for the magical in everyday life, Evie Woods's latest novel is full of ordinary characters with extraordinary tales to tell.

Loved this book- Everything you need Ireland, history, fairies & a love story.
I absolutely love this book- easy to listen to & a story of finding yourself again & going back to your roots. Everything you need Ireland, history, fairies & a love story.Maybe I’m biased with my Irish ancestry based in west Ireland.

Relaxing read.
Liked the mixing of modern day and 1900s. Good characters who I found myself caring about.

Two time periods intertwining.
I enjoyed this once it got going. Slow start but worth persevering. Narrator did an excellent job of all characters.

The theme underpinning both stories
I liked the mixture of past, present and fantasy woven together in an epic story.

A fairy tale
An easy listen which has an endearing quality. Though light and fluffy, there are more serious issues underlying about loss and grief. I enjoyed this and was interested in the dual storyline of Sarah and Anna. The narrator’s voice was delicious.
