An excellent historical novel based in a 19th century Irish village where Catholicism and folklore sit side by side. The story revolves around the belief of one woman that her Grandson has been kidnapped by the fairies and replaced with a changeling. Her earnest attempts to get her Grandson back will have dire consequences for the maid and the local healer woman who she trusts will have the knowledge to help her. What follows is harrowing but the intent is pure. It makes for a disturbing but enthralling work of historical fiction.
