»Die kraftvolle Erzählung einer verbotenen Liebe – eine atemlose und atmosphärische Lektüre.« Daily Mail Lancashire, 1620: Die junge Sarah Haworth lebt mit ihrer Familie als Ausgestoßene auf dem Pesthügel vor dem Dorf. Die Gemeinschaft verachtet unverheiratete kluge Frauen wie sie, aber ihre Dienste – heilende Balsame, Kräutermittel – sind immer gefragt. Als Sarah den Bauernsohn Daniel kennenlernt, ändert sich alles. Er sieht in ihr nicht die wilde Außenseiterin, sondern eine starke junge Frau, die zu sich selbst findet. An seiner Seite, unter seinem Schutz, hofft Sarah auf ein besseres Leben. Doch als ein neuer Magistrat in die Gegend kommt und seltsame Todesfälle untersucht, nimmt die Hetze der Dorfbewohner zu. Und plötzlich hält auch Daniel eine brennende Fackel in der Hand … »Eine düstere, bezaubernde und fesselnde Lektüre, bei der mir am Ende das Herz in die Hose rutschte.« Jennifer Saint
