Hi, my name is Siobhan O'Connor, but everyone calls me Shy. Living quietly with my dad in Boston, I was just an ordinary sixteen-year-old girl. However, everything changed two days ago. Now, I find myself three thousand miles away from home in Ireland, and unexpectedly, I have been chosen as the new Defender of Ireland by an ancient stone monument. It may sound incredible, but it's not as fantastic as it seems because I am now being hunted by Maeve, the Queen of the Sidhe, who wants me dead.
Unbeknownst to me, my dad never revealed that his father served as the leader of the White Branch, a mystical group of warriors assigned to protect our world from Maeve's wrath for the past two millenniums. Sadly, my grandfather has passed away, and now it is my father's duty to take his place. However, I unknowingly committed a grave mistake: the sword necessary for my dad to defeat Maeve has become magically bound to me instead. Consequently, Dad has been captured and is now being held captive by Maeve. She plans to use him as bait to lure the remaining members of the White Branch, leading to their demise. I blame myself entirely for this situation, and it rests on my shoulders to fix it.
To rectify the dire circumstances, I must locate the hidden entrance to the Otherworld, infiltrate Maeve's fortress, rescue my father, and escape before the traitor within the White Branch opens the door for Maeve's forces to invade our world. Offering his assistance, Maeve's exiled son has promised to guide me to the entrance, but only if I assist him in return. I am aware that he cannot be trusted, but I am in desperate need of all the help I can get. Our goal is to successfully rescue my dad and imprison Maeve indefinitely in the Otherworld. Failure would mean death for all of us or a fate worse than death at Maeve's hands.
