An historic tale to tempt the taste buds. The need to belong frames this journey of self discovery set at the time of the English civil war. A complex story is woven together through notions of witchcraft and hidden truths and follows pathways that are often harsh and dangerous, but never dull. Rich and dense, the book is infused with vivid culinary descriptions to almost taste and smell. A fast paced narrative and a feast of a book!
