A woman delves into science and superstition, fear and persecution,
and the hope and courage of belief in an award-winning and
internationally bestselling novel by Katerina Tuckova. Last in a
centuries-old lineage of healing women, Dora Idesova was raised by
her aunt Surmena in the White Carpathians. Resistant to
superstition, Dora grew up hearing stories of the "goddesses" who
were said to conjure love and curses and, through divine
connection, cure the spirit and the body. Now an academic, Dora is
researching the tales that for generations spellbound the hillside
where she grew up. As the mysteries become truths, they reveal a
stunning discovery that reaches back from the witch trials of the
seventeenth century through Nazi-occupied Germany. Embarking on an
emotional journey, Dora is about to find out how deeply and
fatefully she is entwined with secret tradition. Beautifully
weaving together fact, folklore, and fiction, Katerina Tuckova
draws on the stories of her ancestors to explore the extraordinary
history of goddesses who walked the earth.
