Publisher's summary

'A profoundly moving, beautifully written and emotional story' Louise Douglas

A tale as old as time. A spirit that has never rested.

Present day

As a love affair comes to an end, and with it her dreams for her future, artist Selena needs a retreat. The picture-postcard Sloe Cottage in the Somerset village of Ashcombe promises to be the perfect place to forget her problems, and Selena settles into her new home as spring arrives. But it isn’t long before Selena hears the past whispering to her. Sloe Cottage is keeping secrets which refuse to stay hidden.

1682

Grace Cotter longs for nothing more than a husband and family of her own. Content enough with her work on the farm, looking after her father, and learning the secrets of her grandmother Bett’s healing hands, nevertheless Grace still hopes for love. But these are dangerous times for dreamers, and rumours and gossip can be deadly. One mis-move and Grace’s fate looks set…

Separated by three hundred years, two women are drawn together by a home bathed in blood and magic. Grace Cotter’s spirit needs to rest, and only Selena can help her now.

USA Today bestselling author Judy Leigh writing as Elena Collins, brings you this unforgettable, heart-breaking, gripping timeslip novel set in a world when women were hung as witches, and fates could be sealed by a wrong word. Perfect for fans of Barbara Erskine, Diana Gabaldon and Louise Douglas.

Amazing

You’ll have to listen for yourself. This story reminds me of so many quotes about judgement and following the crowd eloquently entwined with peace, love and kindness.

Great story!

I absolutely LOVED this story from start to finish. I've had difficulty getting into a book lately, but not with this one! No doubt I will listen to it again.

A most beautiful “ghost” story!

This will definitely go down as one of my favorites! I loved the setting as described so wonderfully. The duel storyline kept me very interested.
The narrator did a great job.
No dislikes what so ever!

Captivating story!

Great story line. Good transitions from past to present and back. Good, well developed characters whom were all different. I felt real angst as Grace’s story came about. The time period makes me realize how difficult life would have been for females.
Narrator did a great job. She has a very soothing voice and does. It jumps around in pitch which would have ruined this story.

I

Enjoyed the story and the ending, even though there were a few unanswered questions. I would still recommend this book. My only issue is with the voices and certain voice changes from character to character took away from the story. Good listen overall.
