Thread of a Spider is a historical fantasy that weaves history and Irish myth together to tell a story of two teenage siblings caught in a war and swathed in the legends of Erie.Â
1920 found Ireland at the peak of tensions that had been building for centuries. Famine, tyranny, and strife robbed the Irish of their homes, their lives, and their country.
Four years after the Easter Rising, the pressure became so great, that the southern Irish took up arms against the British and fought for a free nation.
Forced into hiding after the Irish ambush at the Upton Rail Station, seventeen-year-old Ailis and her younger brother, Paddy, discover an enchanted glen.
There they witness, from afar, the arrest of her fiancé, Liam. Knowing that he would face execution in Dublin, she makes a solemn promise to save him, confident that her brother and Liam's men would rally to her aid. However, the forest folk have a hidden motive, and entice Paddy with an enchanting melody, whisking him away into their magical realm.
Ailis, alone and confused, her loyalty and strength is put to test. The impending execution of Liam and the dire situation faced by his troops leaves her hopeless. She has no choice but to track down Paddy and implore his abductors, hoping their magic will turn the tides.Â
