So, despite his small size, poor eyesight, and social awkwardness, he's determined to learn all he can in the garda in order to prove his parents' Innocence. To show he's got what it takes, he'll have to confront a fiery leprechaun, a sinister harpy, and a whole world of monsters hidden in plain sight next to real-life Ireland.
