There are a lot of shadows at Ravenswood, so you will need to be strong…’ The year is 1885 and a young woman is on the run, knowing if she’s caught, she’ll be hanged for murder. Moments from a safe haven, she collides with a gruff stranger, falling and breaking her ankle.
To her surprise, the man – Marcus Greybourne – convinces the local constable that she is his reclusive wife of ten years, Luna. He carries her back to the neglected and crumbling Ravenswood Hall, promising if she agrees to maintain this charade, he will keep her safe until her injuries have healed.
But the house is haunted by shadows and secrets. What’s more, the real Luna Greybourne is missing, without trace. Scratches and marks made by her around the house suggest witchcraft; and indeed Luna is known locally as the Ravenswood Witch; her reputation in tatters, like the wallpapers of the padlocked rooms she’d destroyed.
As strange happenings in the house continue, outside the screech of a raven echoes across oppressive woods that seem alive with dark magic. And the woman who is now pretending to be Luna can’t help but fear she’s escaped the noose for a far more terrible fate…
A completely compelling and unforgettable historical bookclub read – fans of Jane Eyre, Weyward and The Binding will be utterly spellbound.
Book Link: The Ravenswood Witch
It’s dark, it’s twisty, it’s mysterious – I loved it!! There are sooooo many secrets hidden in the pages of this witchy, magical, suspense. Some of those secrets we the reader are privy to, some are revealed to us in the most disturbing ways, and some we will never truly know the answer to. “We shall leave the past where it belongs…”
One woman on the run, another has gone missing, and somehow they find their stories tangled together at the hands of Marcus Greyborne who warns that magic is only real if you believe it. The stories that unfold around these three are deliciously scandalous and, at times, a little grotesque. Why is our leading lady on the run? That’s a fantastic question, and one that is revealed to us piece by horrific piece through an occasional flashback. Where has Luna Greyborne disappeared to? Is Marcus to be trusted? Only one way to find out!
I love reading a story where everyone seems suspicious and nothing is quite what it seems, especially when witchcraft and hauntings are afoot!
