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?
"Agnes, in her desperation to fit into society, makes a bargain with a witch... leading to harrowing consequences. I read this whole book in one sitting, worrying about what would happen to Agnes! A great book for fans of historical or fantasy witchcraft novels." - @thecaseofbooks
‘Filled with a sense of foreboding and tension...I was absolutely hooked!’ - @mel_lovesbooks
'This is a fictional medieval world, verging on fantasy, yet it abides by societal rules familiar to our history. Conformity is expected, women are subservient, witchcraft is feared, and rumours kill.' - Susie Helme, Historical Novel Society
