In 1989 someone is threatening to steal the crown jewels, so the Queen of England summons Mac B. to England to protect them--and when they are stolen from a locked dungeon cell, where Mac and Holcroft, one of the warders, are supposed to be guarding them, it is up to Mac to figure out how they were stolen, and whether the thief is the descendant of an Irish soldier-of-fortune who tried to steal them in 1671, or someone else entirely.

As an employee in the Fabled Stables, young Auggie must protect all fantastical creatures, even the irritatingly talkative furry tails that have attached themselves to the human residents of Rainbow's End.

Illustrations by Arthur Rackham accompany this retelling of Irving's classic tale of a headless horseman.
