A town cursed by memory. A witch without one. A night that will change everything.
When poetry professor Twila Stith arrives in the mysterious mountain town of Sibyl Springs, Virginia, she thinks she's starting over. She couldn't be more wrong.
Fired from her university position and desperate for a fresh start, Twila accepts a teaching job at the prestigious Valemont School for the Gifted. But from the moment she sets foot in this old Appalachian town, she knows something is watching her. A man plunges to his death from the historic Montague Hotel, his blood staining the grand entrance. Strange dreams blur the line between memory and vision. A ghostly girl from decades past appears with cryptic warnings. And most unsettling of all, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to Langston Martin-her enigmatic department head who seems to despise her on sight, and harbors secrets as ancient as the mountains themselves.
As eerie encounters escalate and the full moon approaches, Twila discovers that her lifelong fascination with lunar cycles runs deeper than mere poetry. The residents of Sibyl Springs recognize something in her that she doesn't understand-something that makes her both powerful and dangerous. When wicked forces begin stirring in the shadowed hollows and a malevolent entity sets its sights on her, Twila must uncover the truth about her connection to this place and its supernatural inhabitants.
But in a town where everyone guards their secrets and the past refuses to stay buried, Twila will learn that some truths are more terrifying than any lie-and remembering who she really is might be the most dangerous thing of all.
Night of the Moon Witch is a haunting blend of Southern Gothic and supernatural romance that will captivate fans of Silvia Moreno-Garcia, T. Kingfisher, Deborah Harkness, and Patricia Briggs.Also in
