Set in the late 1700s, a tale of magic and fate, triumph and
heartbreak, and the powerful bonds between mothers and daughters unfolds
in this spellbinding novel from a master storyteller.
Brittany, 1762
There hasn't been a witch born in the Orchière clan for generations.
According to the elders, that line is dead, leaving the clan vulnerable
to the whims of superstitious villagers and the prejudices of
fearmongering bishops.
Ursule Orchière has been raised on stories of the great witches of the
past. But the only magic she knows is the false spells her mother weaves
over the gullible women who visit their fortune-telling caravan.
Everything changes when Ursule comes of age and a spark of power flares
to life. Thrilled to be chosen, she has no idea how magic will twist and
shape her future.
Guided by an ancient grimoire and the whispers of her ancestors, Ursule
is destined to walk the same path as the great witches of old. But
first, the Orchière magical lineage must survive. And danger hovers over
her, whether it's the bloodlust of the mob or the flames of the pyre.
Return to the world of A Secret History of Witches with the
bewitching tale of Ursule Orchière and her discovery of magical
abilities that will not only change the course of her life but every
generation that comes after her.
