Available at Amazon: The Beltane Crossing
Some stories are told for entertainment. Others are remembered because someone, somewhere, needed them to survive.
When university student Finn Byrne vanishes on Beltane Eve, every clue points toward an ordinary missing-person case. Police search the countryside. Friends organize volunteers. As the hours turn into days, hope begins to fade.
Only Finn's grandmother, Mara Byrne, believes the old stories may hold the answer.
On the Isle of Mull, tales of ancient roads, fairy processions, and the thinning of the veil between worlds have never been entirely forgotten. To David Byrne, Finn's father, they have always been little more than superstition. Yet with every conventional explanation exhausted, he finds himself following those legends into the gathering twilight, where reason alone may not be enough to bring his son home.
Inspired by the folklore of Scotland, The Beltane Crossing is a quiet, atmospheric tale of family, courage, and the enduring wisdom hidden within the old stories. Set in the world of the Druid's Hound Inn, it can be enjoyed as a standalone novella or as part of the continuing series.
