The novel tells the story of MacKayla Lane or "Mac", the daughter of Jack and Rainey Lane who works as a bartender in Georgia and lives a completely normal life. After learning about her sister's death MacKayla travels to Ireland in hopes of finding her sisters murderer when the local police determine the case unsolved. Soon after arriving in Ireland Mac is spending the evening in a local pub when she sees an inhumanly beautiful man. As she is staring her vision started to change and she saw a man on decay with a foul odor, which she learns to be the Gray Man preying on a victim. No one else noticed the sight except an elderly woman who startles her by hitting her in the head and telling her not to stare because that she would jeopardize them all. The old woman continues to call Mac an O'Connor which she does not understand. Days later Mac visits a local store by the name of Barrons Books and Baubles where she meets a mysterious man by the name of Jerricho Z. Barrons who informs her of a supernatural world of fairies and the oncoming and unknown-to-human war between the Fae world and Mankind. He also teaches MacKayla that she is a sidhe-seer along with her sister. He tells Mac that the Fae world caused her sisters death after she fell in love with one of the Fae who was using Mac's sister in his search for the Sinsar Dubh (pronounced shee-shu-doo), a Dark Hallow authored by the Dark King of the unseelie that belonged to the fae court which is said to hold all the deadliest magic in its pages.[2]

Fever Glossary[edit]

Sinsar Dubh- a dark hallow belonging to the Tuatha Dé Danaan. Written in a language known only to the most ancient of their kind, it is said to hold the deadliest of all magic within its encrypted pages. Brought to Ireland by the Tuatha Dé during the invasions written of in the pseudo-history Leabhar Gabhala, it was stolen along with the other Dark Hallows, and rumored to have found its way into the world of Man. Allegedly authored over a million years ago by the Dark King of the Unseelie.
