Nuala Anne McGrail now lives in Chicago with her husband, Dermot, and their new baby, Nelliecoyne. As Nuala fans may suspect, Nelliecoyne is no ordinary baby: she is fey like her mother and can see into the past as well as the future. Nuala is having a hugely successful career as a folksinger but she is being brutally attacked in the media by a schlock-jock named Nick Farmer, who says he's out to push her off the charts. Obsessed with Nuala, he's even gone so far as to threaten to institute proceedings to have her baby taken away from her.Both Nuala and her daughter have sensed strange vibrations from a place on the Lake where a shipload of Irish Americans lost their lives a hundred years ago. The indomitable Nuala, with her ever-faithful husband and the strange and curious help of her infant daughter, begins to work on unraveling the mystery of why and how the ship was sunk and what might be at the bottom of the Lake. In the course of the investigation they make some dangerous enemies and eventually have to solve a murder and find a buried treasure. Will Nuala survive the attacks of Nick Farmer and a dangerous run-in with the Balkan Mafia? And how does the diary kept by a young Irishwoman in the early 1900s play into these events?
