The Midnight Hour, by Benjamin Read and Laura Trinder (2019) YA, first published in England, then in the USA.
Emily, angry with her parents and very worried because they haven't been home for a week, goes to her father's boring job site - but it seems there is no Night Mail. The post office isn't even at that address. Her Irish ancestry helps when she encounters shapechangers, and her tendency to mouth off at people is surprisingly useful. But don't trust a pooka, and watch out for bad pennies.
Although Irish myth is involved, this rip-roaring adventure story is not limited to that.
Beats the tar out of lackluster short stories read by AI on youtube!
