Spin-off from ''Literature/TheSevenwatersTrilogy''. Written by Creator/JulietMarillier.
Clodagh, one of the six daughters of Lord Sean of Sevenwaters, finds that a shadow has been cast over her family. Her mother, past the safe age for childbearing, is heavily pregnant. One of her cousin Johnny’s warriors has something uncanny about him. Unease pulls at her mind and her heart, driving even the happier memories from her thoughts.
When the unthinkable happens and her baby brother is taken, Clodagh knows that she is the only one who can bring him back. She undertakes a perilous journey to the Otherworld, a once friendly place to her family that has been corrupted by a malevolent influence. With an unlikely ally at her side and her family’s future at stake, she boldly marches into the belly of the beast. Her courage is tested to the breaking point, but along the way she discovers that the reward may be far greater than she imagined.

!!This book contains examples of:
* AGodAmI: Mac Dara certainly believes this. He’s managed to take control of an entire realm and proves to be more powerful than most of the human population.
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Eilis and Coll aren’t necessarily annoying, but they do tend to get into trouble a lot.
* BattleAmongstTheFlames: Mac Dara pushes Clodagh into the river, then conjures a RingOfFire to keep her from coming back. Silly Mac Dara, fire cannot stop true love! Or your silly verses!
* BloodBrothers: Aidan and Cathal are extremely close, having been raised in the same household. Of course, this also leads to them becoming BashBrothers.
* DealWithTheDevil: Clodagh [[spoiler: offers to spend a night with Mac Dara just so she can gain access to Cathal’s room, knowing that she might have to make good on her promise if she doesn’t escape.]]
* FieryRedhead: Clodagh and Deirdre.
* GuessWhoImMarrying: Deirdre’s initial reaction to Clodagh’s news is not a happy one.

* LoveAtFirstSight: Illann falls for Deirdre instantly.
* LoveIsAWeakness: And Mac Dara will use it to his full advantage.
* LoveRedeems: Cathal’s mental and emotional transformation is much more remarkable when you consider what could have happened if Clodagh didn’t step in.
** Think about it: If Cathal hadn’t allowed himself to fall in love with Clodagh (and for her to love him in return), it’s very likely that he would have either wasted away or turned into his father [[spoiler: after Mac Dara finally got a hold of him and started training him.]]
** He had the personality of a rock in the beginning. A number of people on Inis Eala were probably happy to see the change when he got back.

[[spoiler: The two of them then proceed to trick Mac Dara, the king of tricks and lies.]] Twice.
