CHAPTER 17
Danny woke with a splitting headache and soon realized he was bound to a stone fence. He saw strange-looking men and women everywhere he looked. Then he remembered his blind chase for Síne. He needed to find her fast so he could get back to his sister. He knew Catherine would be safe with Bowen, but he also knew she would be worried sick about him. He didn't like the way he left, but he needed Síne to lead them to Conall when they were ready to enact the curse.
When he returned to his normal life, he needed her so he could keep his promise to the Gardaí, but he couldn't find her no matter how hard he tried. He couldn't be sure he was tracking her. Days and days with hardly any food or water and sleeping without shelter had left him shaky and unwell. The last thing he remembered was feeling relief when he spotted Síne and stalked her movements before she snuck up and clubbed him from behind.
