In the village of Pittlewood, near Earlsraven, they believe in faerie folk. Ask anyone - they'll say there have always been goblins living in the woods nearby. When one of the villagers is found murdered, the footprints made by tiny little shoes are found everywhere around the body. Is it possible? Can one of the little people really be the murderer? The villagers think so. Nathalie and Louise can't believe it and set out to find the truth. Then another murder occurs, and, once again, a tiny trail of footprints seems to implicate the goblins. Our two detectives are faced with a terrified village, an ancient legend, and a mysterious adversary to contend with.
