Now: When Adrianna arrives at the small, run-down cottage, in rural Norfolk, she can't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Here she can forget her life in the city, and the problems she's left behind, at least for a while. But - like Adrianna herself - the cottage holds secrets. And when Adrianna finds a bundle of notes hidden under a floorboard, she can't shake the idea that they've been waiting for her. Especially when she finds a strangely-carved stone in the garden, drawing her into a centuries-old mystery. 1646: Between her work as the village midwife and the medicines she sells from her cottage, Ursula has no need for a man. But this ideal leaves her unprotected in a world where just one accusation of witchcraft can mean certain death. When she catches the eye of a new local doctor, she must use every part of her cunning, or risk becoming his prisoner. Can each woman find the keys to their own destiny?
