    About this ebook

    A young witch living in a town desperate to rid itself of her kind finds herself dangerously drawn to a blind priest. She unknowingly exposes herself by using her gift to cure her lover’s ailment. She finds herself thrown in jail and awaiting a deadly sentence.

    Spurned by the priest one time too many, a jealous and vengeful nun does her best to ensure that he is forever separated from his lover. She takes great pleasure in tormenting the witch while she is imprisoned. But to her detriment, her tactics forces the witch to embrace her darker side.
