With the birth of identical twins, Gabby and Jane Tuppenny, the mould of a comical and delightful double act is well and truly broken. Jane is a kind-hearted and complacent young lady and her sister, a rebel without a cause. Ecstasy reigns when the family inherit Gloverlove Cottage and they embrace the relocation to their new home and new beginnings in Glendarry. What begins as an exciting relocation soon turns frightfully sour. Horror strikes when pernicious forces from an unknown world penetrate the walls of Gloverlove Cottage and their baby brother Willie Tuppenny is stolen away and replaced with Edwin, a cantankerous little Changeling with all manner of irritating habits. Inheriting the wizened, ill-mannered and extremely rude little critter, whose piercing whine puts the bounds of mortal endurance to the test, the twins brace themselves to ride the malevolent waves of change. Converging to join forces with Bella and Brodie, two fairies with deeper insight into the dark world that has emerged, they embark on a hair-raising mission to find Willie and return Edwin to his rightful owner. Transported into a spine-chilling world, encompassed in haunting terrain and awash with unspoken evil and fantastical, toe-curling dark magic that both girls are emotionally and physically ill-equipped for, the twins battle the pernicious forces at play and charge ahead to The Devils Doorway, the portal of no return. With the odds stacked against them, they stagger into life threatening conflict with a race of blood-thirsty Bendith's, the Dullahan, the Black Annis and countless other formidable and merciless beings and species intent on their demise. With commitment to triumph over destructive evil and in a tale of selfless courage and grim determination, the quest takes the twins on a journey of hope, faith and self-discovery. This is the first of many adventures the Tuppenny Twins embark upon in Glendarry.
