Aine, Sarah and Marie are linked through the same woods, spirits and old magic despite living in different periods.
Each girl faces a different form of danger or adversity, and the present-day storyline requires Marie to investigate and respond to what she senses.
Aine runs from Roman enslavement, Sarah survives after her mother’s death and is associated with accusations of witchcraft, while Marie is dealing with family loss.
Consider whether the reader welcomes eerie supernatural danger, ghostly voices and frightening imagery.
