After learning that the changeling watchers are living among us and being warned to flee by the one changeling that befriended her, Mina has moved to a remote beachfront cottage and lives a life of drunken fear and dread that the watchers will eventually come for her and the other survivor Ciara. Meanwhile, Sean, the son of the man who originally built the structure in the woods where the original story took place, has led an archaeological expedition to drill down into a Burren hoping to prove his father's beliefs in the “fairy folk” of the past. Mina's fears are soon justified when people she knows are replaced by changelings, and she finds herself once again on the run with her yellow parrot trying to survive and convince others of what is happening. At the same time what Sean will unearth will only add to the horror that may eventually threaten all of Ireland and perhaps humanity itself. This is a creepy monster romp similar to “The invasion of the bodysnatchers” theme, but with claws and teeth. This reader wonders if there may be a third book coming sometime in the future to continue Mina's story of survival.
