A magical legacy, both a curse and a gift, haunts three women across centuries in this spellbinding story.
1650: Mary Hatley, a secret healer, longs for a life far from her childhood farm. One star-strewn night, she and her forbidden love escape to London, finding solace working in an apothecary shop. Though this unconventional path harbors peril Mary hadn’t predicted, she’s determined to create a legacy that will protect women like her for generations to come.
1692: When Clara Brooks is accused of witchcraft at the height of the Salem witch trials, she escapes deep into the wilderness with her young daughter in tow. Their only hope of survival is the gift Clara has long kept at bay—a deep and intrinsic connection to the natural world—and a mysterious presence who guides them on their harrowing journey.
1959: July Hathaway, once an aspiring medical student with a hidden power of healing, is now a single parent struggling in a world that disavows unwed mothers. To protect her daughter from imminent danger, July flees to a remote island in the Pacific Northwest, where her fate hinges on uncovering the truth about the outcast women who preceded her.
With lyrical prose and captivating characters, this riveting tale is a story of love, courage, and motherhood, as three women across history test the bonds of magic running through them all.
