Oisín McGann
Translated into Irish by Fearghas Mac Lochlainn
Granddad can’t remember where he left the car and Learaí is helping him look for it. But there’s something strange about Granddad, not that he isn’t always a bit strange, but this time he’s even stranger than ever! Not only that, something is coming for Granddad and Learaí — and it isn’t good.
