The Morrigan

by Emily Emerson

In a small town in Ireland, the local pub is the place to go for a pint and the latest gossip. When a stranger comes to town, the pub owner, Máire, is immediately suspicious, though she’s hiding her own secrets. With the help of her sisters, Máire must face her fears and break free of her demons, finding friendship in a surprising place.
