'Totally gripping and atmospheric. This hypnotic timeslip about witches is compulsive reading. Breathtaking and beautifully written... Will stay with the reader long after the last page.' Bestselling author of The Witch's Tree, Elena Collins
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?
Utterly gripping timeslip historical fiction, perfect for fans of The Witch's Tree, The Essex Serpent and Weyward.
Bestselling authors love The House of the Witch:
'I was completely hooked by this brilliant timeslip novel. Unmissable!' Louise Douglas
'A haunting tale of one woman's struggle to be independent at a time when strong women were seen as a threat and dealt with accordingly. The House of the Witch gripped me from the first page and refused to let go.' Jenni Keer
