In an era of superstition and magic, a young apprentice hunter, Robyn Goodfellow, travels with her father to Ireland to eliminate the last wolf pack. While exploring the forbidden lands outside the city walls, Robyn befriends an unusual girl, Mebh, a member of a mysterious tribe: they are said to have the ability to transform themselves into wolves at night. As they search for Mebh’s missing mother, Robyn uncovers a secret that will lead her further into the world of Wolfwalkers, and risks becoming what her father is tasked to destroy.
