There's more than one way to get to Faery. It's getting back that's the problem… DI Adams is not having a good summer. Her house has been hexed. Her DCI's muttering about mental health breaks. Her invisible dog keeps disappearing at inopportune moments. And to top it all off, her parents have just turned up, determined to experience all Yorkshire has to offer. And they're going to get more than they bargained for, because someone else has turned up too.
