A sceptic. A healer. A church that would bury them both.
Bavaria, 1630. The Thirty Years' War has reduced Europe to ruin, and the witch trials are burning through Germany. Father Friedrich Spee is sent to investigate a mysterious death in the remote mountain village of Gramschatz. He expects to find nothing. He expects to be home by winter.
Instead, he discovers a woman the townsfolk have gone to great lengths to conceal, a healer who speaks of hidden worlds and the darkness that moves between them. Either she is the most dangerous woman he has ever met, or she is the only hope for a sick and dying land.
What he finds will cost him everything he believes.
