Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Some forty-odd years before and many miles to the south, the girl who would someday be Kinky Kincaid was Maureen O''Hanlon, a farmer''s daughter growing up in the emerald hills and glens of County CorkA precocious girl on the cusp of womanhood, Maureen has a head full of dreams, a heart open to romance, and something more: a gift for seeing beyond the ordinary into the mystic realm of fairies, spirits, and even the dreaded Banshee, whose terrifying wail she first hears on a snowy night in 1922….

Maureen finds herself torn between love and her fondest aspirations in a journey that sets her on the road to Ballybucklebo—and to the strong and compassionate woman she was always destined to become.
