When Lavender Blue learns that the Banshee, the faerie messenger of
death, will soon visit her best friend Rose, she makes a desperate wish
on a star. Her prayer for a chance to save Rose is granted by the
faeries of Galtee Wood, and Lavender finds herself entangled in an
ancient and magical quest that will lead her through the perilous faerie
realm. As Lavender races to reach her best friend before the Banshee,
she finds herself facing more and more dangers than she could have
imagined, dangers that will test her wits, her courage, and her love to
the limit. Can Lavender find the strength to overcome the magical
dangers and dark faeries in time to save Rose? Or as the blackness of
night veils the woods, will the piercing cry of the Banshee warn that
she is too late?
