'Cryptic... Breathless... Vivid... Demonstrates promise' - Curtis Brown Creative
Women who could shape the fortunes of many, but could not divine their own...
When the daughter of a self-confessed witch, Sarah Saville, disrupts a sacred altar, she becomes transformed by an ancient myth, giving birth to twin daughters through immaculate conception, a miracle – something that her enemies consider hard to ignore. As she prepares to leave behind her life of rogues, privateers, and witchcraft, Sarah is attacked at sea, and loses her children in the chaos. Years later, her long-lost daughters, now forge their own destiny, and like their mother, seek to reunite. A reunion that will set London on fire, and forever change the world as they know it.
'Excellent imagery and turns of phrase. Engaging, moody, atmospheric' - Chelsey Flood, author of Nightwanderers, and Infinite Sky
