Violet Bernadette Ipswich and her friend, Madeline the fawn, go looking for adventure one moonlit night and set off over the hills and far away to find it.

In a mysterious glade, they meet a group of moonstruck rabbits, who tell them about a magical place called Scarborough Fair where all of your wishes can come true. Overcome by delight at the fantastical stories, they decide to go see for themselves.

On this journey they meet a shapeshifting wizard who holds the forest under his spell, an evil troll who wants to eat young travelers, a lonely ghost boy named Peppet who only wants to find his way home, and many more odd and peculiar creatures.

Violet and Madeline must use all their wits and courage to find their way home before they become lost in this frightening dark wood forever.
