On the eve of her 13th birthday, Rhiannon Meriweather’s life changes forever when the strange man she has seen following her through the city streets shows up at her door. Fleeing into the night, she only has her backpack, a sword that was gifted to her by her kung fu master and a vintage, metal torc that her father insists will help to keep her safe.
But when the strange man turns out to be a murderous redcap, who is intent on Rhiannon’s capture, her once boring and normal life becomes a monumental, magical nightmare. Dodging characters she once believed only existed in Celtic myth and legend, Rhiannon must accept her new reality if she is ever to discover her true past and fated destiny.
The only problem is that she has no idea where she is running to or whom she can trust, so what chance does she really have when it comes to escaping the clutches of her deadly pursuer?
