Synopsis

Sherlock Holmes has been missing and presumed dead for some time, and Mrs Hudson is left grief-stricken and searching for distraction. Travelling to Ireland with her friend Kitty Melrose to try to prevent a forced marriage, she encounters a countryside shaped by superstition and the old ways, from fairy forts and holy wells to tales of changelings and banshees.

Against a backdrop of an impoverished peasantry living under oppressive English landlords, a brutal murder and the arrest of someone she believes to be innocent draw her into escalating danger. Alongside the peril, there is also unexpected amusement as an elderly widower with a roving eye begins to court her.
