We are delighted to share news of a captivating new book that will resonate deeply with lovers of Irish folklore, spirituality, and atmospheric storytelling. The Faery Bailiff by Bosco is now available, just in time for the Christmas season.
About the Book
Set in the hauntingly beautiful landscape of 1830s Ireland, The Faery Bailiff tells the story of Brogan Ó Deaghaigh, a solitary figure who lives alone in his crooked turf cottage, shunned by villagers who whisper that he is the Faery Bailiff. Haunted by loss and bound by faith, he keeps to the shadows of the road and the lonely lanes of the parish.
Tasked with an extraordinary duty, Brogan is thrust into a world of ancient magic and hidden dangers. Faced with daunting challenges, he must defy his own fears and doubts, all while navigating the demands of his newfound role.
As Christmas draws near, mysterious signs stir in the countryside, drawing Brogan from his isolation into a world where sorrow, mercy, and the unseen meet.
A Story Steeped in Irish Tradition
Lyrical, eerie, and steeped in Irish vernacular, The Faery Bailiff draws upon the rich traditions of Irish folklore and the deep spirituality that has shaped the island for centuries. The novel explores themes that resonate with the sacred heritage we celebrate here at PilgrimIRL:
- The thin places – where the boundary between the natural and supernatural worlds grows thin
- Faith and doubt – the eternal struggle between belief and uncertainty
- Redemption and grace – finding light in the darkest of times
- The Irish landscape – as a character itself, shaping the souls of those who dwell within it
Perfect for the Christmas Season
With its Christmas setting and themes of quiet redemption, The Faery Bailiff is the perfect companion for the winter evenings ahead. It is a ghostly tale of grief, grace, and quiet redemption that lingers long after the snow has melted.
