She hopes that the tranquil surroundings will help ease her grief, and lessen her disturbing visions of Mat's death. Instead, the lake in the valley below her cottage seems to spark something dormant in her - a sensitivity, and a power of some sort. Animals are drawn to her, electricity shorts out when she's near, and strangest of all, she sees a new vision; a boatful of ancient people approaching her across the water. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOn this same lake in Celtic times lived Seren, a witch and shaman. She was respected but feared, kept separate from the community for her strange looks. When a vision came to her of the Prince amid a nest of vipers she warned of betrayal from one of his own. Prince Brynach both loved and revered her, but could not believe someone close to him wished him harm, even as the danger grew. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn her own time, Tilda's grief begins to fade beside her newfound powers and a fresh love. When she explores the lake's ancient magic and her own she discovers Seren, the woman in her vision of the boat. Their two lives strangely mirror each other's, suggesting a strong connection between the women. As Tilda comes under threat from a dark power, one reminiscent of Seren's prophecy, she must rely on Seren and ancient magic if death and disaster are not to shatter her life once more. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePaula Brackston does it once again with \u003ci\u003eThe Silver Witch, \u003c\/i\u003e crafting an enchanting tale as timeless as it is engrossing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paula Brackston\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1250086345\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250086341\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martin's Griffin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/02\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.80d","brand":"Paula Brackston","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44049748492543,"sku":"9781250086341","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_622c980f-ff00-4432-bd0a-39b6e2119eec.jpg?v=1685003237","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-silver-witch-paula-brackston-9781250086341","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
