Review
'This impressive historical debut is a beguiling mix of politics and witchcraft' The Bookseller 'Jago writes lyrically and handles a complicated plot with aplomb' Financial Times 'With Roman Catholics and Protestants at each other's throats and two white witches hiding in the woods, there isn't a dull moment' The Times 'This action-packed murder mystery is full of interesting period detail woven into the narrative with a light hand ... Her engaging heroine and the unfolding drama of this debut novel carry the reader along at a cracking pace' Books for Keeps
