In fact, Adam Riley and his Efriends have been telling scary stories about Jimmy for years—stories they don’t really believe. After all, how can anyone believe in a half-human beast with horns and hooves? But the legend of Jimmy Leeds isn’t just a story. When all the kids in the neighbor- hood decide to have a giant camp-out, Adam and his friends learn much too late that the streets of Baskerville aren’t safe—especially after dark. One by one, Adam’s friends start disappearing into the night. At first, Adam thinks it’s some kind of joke— until he follows the hoofprints into the nearby woods, and finds himself face-to-face with the Beast of Baskerville….

The chieftains of Sevenwaters have long been custodians of a vast forest, one of the last refuges of the Tuatha De Danann, the Fair Folk of ancient story. Human and Otherworld dwellers have existed there side by side, separated by a thin veil between worlds and sharing a wary trust. Until the spring when Lady Aisling of Sevenwaters finds herself expecting another child, and everything changes. With her Heir to Sevenwaters pregnant, Clodagh fears the worst since Aisling is well past the safe age for childbearing. To set things to rights for her family and for all the people of Sevenwaters, Clodagh must enter the shadowy Otherworld and confront the powerful prince who now rules there. Accompanied on her quest by a warrior of uncertain allegiance, she will have her courage tested to breaking point. The reward may be far greater than she ever dreamed.
