He only hopes he can find Emily and Rory before he is caught. Bridget is left to carry on raising their young sons until the rest of her family returns, but when she receives a letter with news of Cormac’s long-lost sister, she decides she had better act immediately.

This fast-paced tale is full of adventure, suspense, and a hint of romance. While it is possible to enjoy the book on its own, it is much better read as part of the series. The books build directly on the previous one, making this an excellent choice for those times when you need a good binge read.
