Description
FROM THE AUTHOR OF 'THE FINERY' COMES A BLAZING FEMINIST TALE OF PERSECUTION AND MAGIC...
In medieval Locklear, Agnes harbours a dangerous secret-she can touch fire without being burned.
As war rages beyond the town and whispers of witchcraft echo through its streets, Agnes navigates arranged marriages, rivals' schemes, and the threat of the hangman's noose.
When a desperate bargain with a local widow goes awry, Agnes's world erupts in flames-she is accused of witchcraft.
In a society that fears female power, can Agnes find the strength to forge her own destiny?
Tradition, religious conflict, and hidden power...
