Be drawn into this compelling, transfixing novel about the bond
between three sisters from the author of The Poison Bed Three
sisters. Three secrets. Three ways to fall . . . England, 1628.
Forcibly seduced by the powerful George Villiers, doctor's daughter
Hester is cast aside to raise her son alone and in secret. She
hopes never to see Villiers again. Melis's visions cause disquiet
and talk. She sees what others can't - and what has yet to be.
She'd be denounced as a witch if Hester wasn't so carefully
protective. Young Hope's beauty marks her out, drawing unwelcome
attention to the family. Yet she cannot always resist others'
advances. And her sisters cannot always be on their guard. When
Villiers decides to claim his son against Hester's wishes, the
sisters find themselves almost friendless and at his mercy. But the
women hold a grave secret - will it be their undoing or their
salvation? Because in the right hands, a secret is the deadliest
weapon of all . . . 'Fremantle builds the tension with delicious
skill in this page-turning thriller' Times 'Wonderfully inventive
and darkly satisfying, this story of three sisters resonates with
myth and mystery' Andrew Taylor, bestselling author of The Ashes of
London 'A lush, thrilling page-turner humming with its own
exquisite dark beauty. I loved it!' Eve Chase, author of The Glass
House 'Gripping and page-turning. Propels a trio of vivid women
towards their complex destinies . . . Hugely enjoyable' V.B. Grey,
author of the forthcoming Tell Me How It Ends
