Description
Book Synopsis''AN IRRESISTIBLE BLEND OF MAGIC AND HISTORICAL FANTASY'' Young Folks
An engrossing tale of love, sacrifice, family ties and magic set in the aftermath of World War II - perfect for fans of A Discovery of Witches, Outlander and Nora Roberts.
Barrie Anne Blythe and her Aunt Charlotte have always known that the other residents of their small coastal community find them peculiar. It is the price of concealing their strange and dangerous family secret.
But two events threaten to upend their lives for ever: the arrival of an abandoned baby with a hint of power like their own, and the reappearance of Barrie Anne''s long-lost husband - who is not quite the man she thought she married. Barrie Anne and Charlotte must decide how far they are willing to go to protect themselves - and the child they think of as their own - from suspicious neighbours, the government and even their own family . . .
Praise for Louisa Morgan:
Trade Review
Deftly captures the greatest magic of all: the love between mothers and daughters
A
moving multigenerational saga about strong women who work behind the scenes to save the world from tyranny. A deeply satisfying and magical work of great craftI loved it. A beautiful generational tale,
reminiscent of Practical Magic if it had been set in various time periods, but much more expansive in scope. Grounded and real, painful and hopeful at the same time
Morgan's transportive words
will sweep you away to a time of magic, love, and loss. Simply hold on and enjoy this
mesmerizing ride
