Utterly gripping timeslip historical fiction, perfect for fans of The Witch's Tree, The Essex Serpent and Weyward.
Now: When Adrianna arrives at the small, run-down cottage, near the sea in rural Norfolk, she can't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Here she can forget her life in the city, and the problems she's left behind there, at least for a while.
But - like Adrianna herself - the cottage holds secrets. And when Adrianna finds a mysterious bundle of notes hidden under a floorboard, she can't shake the idea that they've been waiting for her. Especially when - in the rambling, overgrown garden - she then finds a strangely-carved stone, drawing her into a centuries-old mystery...
1646: Between her work as the village midwife and the medicines she sells from her cottage, Ursula has no need for a man. But this ideal leaves her unprotected in a world where just one accusation of witchcraft can mean certain death. So when she catches the eye of a powerful new local doctor, she must use every part of her cunning, or risk becoming his prisoner...
Can the two women - their paths bound by place and history - each find the keys to their own destiny?
