Quite an interesting tale about one of the many mysteries of Irish folklore. The author’s detailed and descriptive narrative carries your minds’ eye to visualizing the individual characters activities and souls with unusual clarity. Good read for any age. Good story – very well written and very creative. Only draw back, is that the tale is too short -these characters you want to continue with them for many more pages. Recommend it without hesitation.
