A falling star. A midnight meadow. And a grandmother who knows more than she lets on.

Journey with a young girl named Brigid as she discovers the ancient wisdom of the women before her — celestial secrets, sacred waters, and the night myth steps out of story and into her life.

Step into the misty heart of Ireland, where the land whispers, rivers carry the names of goddesses, and magic lives in the spirits of those who walk her fields.
