Jacky's best friend, Kate Hazel, agrees (at first skeptically) to help her. Having recently witnessed the murder of a gnome by evil bikers, Jacky's meeting with Finn inspires her with the renewed vitality to embark upon a quest to save the daughter of a Laird of Kinrowan, who is being held in a Giant's Keep. Feeling empty, confused and rejected, Jacky meets Dunrobin Finn, a gnome who introduces her to a parallel reality, Faerie, which she can see and enter into by wearing a magic red cap. Jacky Rowan's boyfriend of three months has just dumped her because she has begun to bore him. In his eighth fantasy novel, the author of Moonheart and Yarrow turns the stories of ""Jack the Giant Killer'' and ``Jack and the Bean Stalk'' into a contemporary tale set in Ottawa.
