Two women, bound by blood and betrayal, must break silence across centuries—or be silenced forever…For fans of Emilia Hart’s Weyward, Chris Bohjalian’s Hour of the Witch, and Philippa Gregory’s Tidelands
In present day, Lilith’s life is unraveling. Since her mother’s death, strange things have been happening - plants turn toward her touch, animals linger in her path, and the birthmark on her arm has started tingling. Her search for answers brings her from Savannah, Georgia to England, to the decaying Brackenmere Manor. There, Lilith discovers a legacy she never asked for and learns that history must be rewritten, or she too will die.
In 1645 Suffolk, Sybil stands accused as a witch. An educated, wealthy widow, she is branded a threat by men who fear her independence. As arrests begin and suspicion abounds, Sybil must protect her younger sister, even as betrayal takes root within her household. Across centuries, Lilith and Sybil are bound by blood and by danger. To save themselves, and each other, they must confront the silence that has stolen women’s power for generations—and dare to claim their voices before it’s too late.
