\"book<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

A family of healers,
an unlooked-for skill,
now her future is uncertain\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A healer relieves pain with herbs and treatments<\/a> – wouldn’t removing a painful memory from the mind also be healing? But this action in 1531 France will definitely not be seen as a gift from God!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon after her beloved grandmother’s death, 15-year-old Sylvie leaves her mother as lone healer for their village, departing to seek a teacher to help her tame this new skill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Martin decides to travel with her, having no skill at his family’s trade – now Sylvie has to feed a growing young boy and keep them both safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the market town, they find a healer who knew her grandmother and tells Sylvie where she might find a teacher – a long, dangerous journey away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the healer’s friend Robert whose caravan is going to Lyon is the same young man that Martin insulted at the market\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can the merchant’s caravan avoid robbers on the way?
Will this Madame du Bois help Sylvie learn to contain her gift?
What’s the connection between Robert and Madame and\u2026the archbishop? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The divide between being a healer or a witch<\/a> is thinner than one of Martin’s red hairs, and Sylvie must decide for herself where to make her stand. Read the first chapter here<\/a> free, courtesy of the publisher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever wished to see inside another’s mind?
