The year is 1918 and Grace Pike is 11. A precocious outcast at prestigious Victoria Street School in Harbour Grace, she is severely challenged as a young adult reader. A difficult year of studies is made worse when her mother, a recent war widow, is faced with a proposition which could change the future of both the family and the town they call home.
But when Grace encounters two visiting children at the Fairy Ring, a magical cluster of trees on an abandoned farm, everything changes. A story from author Patrick Collins that melds fantasy with realism. Here is historical Newfoundland as you have never seen it before.
