Cess works caring for the chickens at Montacute House but on her
thirteenth birthday everything changes. She finds a precious locket
hidden in the chicken coop and is convinced someone has placed it
there for her to find. But the day is overshadowed by fear as a
boy's body is found by the river, and then when William disappears,
Cess is accused by the villagers of bewitching her best friend.
Cess is determined to find William and prove the villagers wrong,
but is soon embroiled in a plot that threatens her world and forces
Cess to draw on powers she never knew she possessed, powers that
will place her life in danger if they are discovered by the
villagers. Witchcraft, politics and religious ambition combine in
this gripping and wonderfully realised novel set in the Somerset of
the 1500s.
