The Names of a Hare
Can a woman gifted with the power of healing survive in a world that burns what it cannot understand?
Cornwall, 1628. A young girl guards a dangerous secret β she can leave her body and fly.
Steeped in herbal lore and forbidden spells, the girl becomes a woman, while across the land, whispers of witchcraft turn deadly.
When witchfinder Matthew Hopkins sets out to hunt her down, their meeting will change the course of history. In a world that fears what it cannot explain, a story shared is the most potent magic of all.
The Names of a Hare is an enthralling tale of mystery and power, beautifully intertwining historical intrigue with the mystic forces of legend.
