Resumen del Editor
In seventeenth-century England, a female healer enflames the fury of a witchfinder in this propulsive novel about murder, revenge, and the dangerous power of knowledge.
Mary Fawcett refines the healing recipes she’s inherited from generations of women before her—an uncanny and moral calling to empathize with the sick. When witchfinder Matthew Hopkins arrives in her small village, stoking the fires of hate, he sees not healing but the devil at work. Mary’s benevolent skills have now cast her and her young brother under suspicion of witchery.
Soon, the husband of one of Mary’s patients is found murdered, his body carved with strange symbols. For Hopkins, it’s further evidence of dark arts. When the whispering village turns against her, Mary dares to trust a stranger: an enigmatic alchemist, scarred body and soul, who knows the dead man’s secrets.
As Hopkins’s fervor escalates, Mary must outsmart the devil himself to save her life and the lives of those she loves. Unfolding the true potential of her gifts could make Mary a more empowered adversary than a witchfinder ever feared.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“This historical-fiction novel set in 1640s England showcases the hysteria that can grip a small village, causing people to turn on their own neighbors and friends. It's an emotional story, full of flawed characters who are just trying to survive in a world full of suspicion and betrayal.”—Booklist
“The multiple plot threads keep tensions high, the plot twists will keep readers guessing, and the characters (both good and ill-intentioned) are nuanced and well-written. All this, along with its immersive historical details and a sprinkle of fantasy, have conjured up an entrancing read.”—Historical Novels Review
“A stunning achievement in historical fiction. The Village Healer’s Book of Cures is by turns a work of luminous beauty and a harrowingly dark exploration of the perilous role cunning women played in a society rife with suspicion. Mary Fawcett is an unforgettable heroine, and Roberts’s nimble prose enchants with its honesty. An exquisite, wise, and ambitious debut.”—Paulette Kennedy, author of The Witch of Tin Mountain

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

Photographer Isla Wilson is thrilled she's landed her dream job, but the clients who hired her are getting stranger by the day. It sounded so perfect—a month's assignment at the lush Scottish Highlands property of architect Alban McGregor, and his wife, Jessica. But in the woods, there's a playhouse with a chilling history. Two years ago, the McGregors' daughter Elodie was abducted and then died in that playhouse. The townspeople insist her abductor had to be a stranger in their town. Alban refuses to knock the playhouse down, even keeping a picture of it on his wall.

Buckhead isn’t a place you live, it’s a place you survive. And that applies even to the wealthy housewives that have it all. Fancy cars, designer clothes, and daily salon appointments aren’t nearly enough to keep them fulfilled and happy. Because in this town, privilege and opulence go hand in hand with betrayal and revenge. Jenny, the owner of Glow, an exclusive membership-only beauty salon, knows that better than anyone, because she knows everything about these housewives—down to each individual strand of hair.

Historia
For centuries, the vineyards at Château Renard have depended on the talent of their vine witches, whose spells help create the world-renowned wine of the Chanceaux Valley. Then the skill of divining harvests fell into ruin when sorcière Elena Boureanu was blindsided by a curse. Now, after breaking the spell that confined her to the shallows of a marshland and weakened her magic, Elena is struggling to return to her former life. And the vineyard she was destined to inherit is now in the possession of a handsome stranger.

She’d only recently moved back to her childhood hometown, not even getting a chance to reacquaint herself with the neighbors. How could she possibly be a murder suspect? As Tabitha is shepherded through the system, her entire life is picked apart and scrutinized - her history of depression and medications, her decision to move back to a town she supposedly hated, and her past relationship with the victim, her former teacher.

So much bad, so much good
The beginning of the book was difficult. As the narrator found her pacing, however, it became easier to listen. There was so much ugliness during this period (and I feel like nothing ever changes). Not until the London segment did I find relief. The sparks of goodness, kindness, and healing kept me listening and provided a wonderful ending.

Fascinating view of wise women in 17th century England
An enthralling tale of a wise woman who has great knowledge and healing skills, and the troubles that come to her life when a self-appointed witch hunter comes to town. The parallels to our modern world, where distrust and misinformation can ruin lives so quickly, gave me much to think about. A wonderful read, and heartily recommended!

The village healer’s book of cures.
I loved the story and the way it was told. This is not a witch story it is a story of a healer who uses plants to help there patients. She can only do the best she can on what she knows. This story based in the seventh century. Witch trials and the historical times. I would suggest it if you are interested in alchemy the philosophers and the medical history of what they had for medicine in the 17 century.

All Hail the Village Healer
This book had me from the beginning. An entertaining read (and listen, narration well done!!), it also is a reflection on life as it is now, as we witch hunt our neighbors, friends, and loved ones. Mary and her brother Tom are quite sympathetic and interesting characters, with a touch of other-worldliness to them. Also loved how animals played such a part in the natural and supernatural world around them, just as it was back in those days. It seems like this is set up for a follow up and I’d read it. I think what’s so lovely about Mary is how true to the healer calling she is, while she will look facts head-on.

Plot twist I didn't expect! Excellent!
Showcasing the truth that the imagination can be a terrible thing gave me real cause to feel such contempt for the villagers, the characters trying to create the philosopher's stone, and Matthew Hopkins. The only thing better than a character you love is one you can really hate with righteous indignation! Well done. Also, thanks for not keeping her in that small village at the end.
