Ellie is a child to whom the spirits speak, and who possesses a mystical connection to the earth and an instinctive feeling for its magic and that of the gods and goddesses of our ancestors. Her parents, concerned for the health of her small brother, cannot begin to understand her; she seems to them almost alien, and when they catch her in an act of bloodless sacrifice to a beautiful marble statue in the garden beneath the light of the new moon she is sent away to boarding school.

This is the story of her quest to find some unbroken thread of belief from those ancient times, and a people with whom she feels at one, and to come to terms with the consequences of the practice of the Art Magick, and the implications of the Witches’ Law: An’ it harm none, Do what ye will.
