After selling their house in Manchester, a family move into a house in Birchover village. The back of the garden leads straight into Birchover wood. Dave, Sarah, and Solomon have no idea how their lives will be turned upside down by moving to their new house. At the same time, the faery Sup Sup Rose organises groups of faeries to help with new arrivals. After completing the task, he notices something at the base of the oak tree that has the Bad imprisoned. A crack has appeared, a sign that the Bad is coming and maybe the end of the faery nation.
