WANTED: One Lunar Witch, preferably naïve.Being born a witch has always been just a detail from my past, you know, like summer camp, or the time Timmy ate a bug, but now, thanks to one very pushy Immortal, a handful of mutant shifters, a psycho named Chaos and a nice guy (I think) named Emmet, my magic’s become a real pain in my ass.San Diego was a totally chill choice for college, until this whole moon-cycle madness was thrown in my lap (more like shoved in my face) and now I’m bumbling with basic spells, crash studying to go from zero to fierce in a matter of days.Only problem with this test is that it’s graded pass/fail where failure is death.I wouldn’t wish magic on anyone. It attracts all the wrong entities, the kind you can’t run from, the kind who always find you, the kind who know your dark secrets even before you do.One thing's for sure... there's magic in the moonlight.

My name is Siobhan O’Connor, but everyone calls me Shy. Two days ago, I was an ordinary sixteen-year-old girl living quietly in Boston with my dad. Today, I’m three thousand miles away from home, and an ancient stone monument has decided I’m the new Defender of Ireland. That isn’t nearly as awesome as it sounds, because now Maeve, the Queen of the Sidhe, is trying to kill me. Dad never told me his father was the leader of the White Branch, a mystical band of warriors tasked with keeping Maeve at bay for the past two thousand years. Now Grandpa is dead, and Dad has to take his place. But I’ve made a terrible mistake, and the sword Dad needs to defeat Maeve is bound to me instead. Dad is now her prisoner, and Maeve is using him as bait to lure the rest of the White Branch to their deaths. This is all my fault, and it’s up to me to fix it. I have to find the hidden entrance to the Otherworld, sneak into Maeve’s fortress, free Dad and escape, before the traitor within the White Branch allows Maeve’s army to invade our world. Maeve’s exiled son has offered to show me the way, if I agree to help him in return. I know he can’t be trusted, but I need all the help I can get. If we’re lucky, we’ll be able to rescue Dad and lock Maeve away in the Otherworld forever. If not, Maeve will kill us all … or make us wish she had.
