The story is about Gilly who inherits a cottage after her
cousin dies. Gilly moves from the North
East to the cottage near Salisbury. When
she arrives at the cottage she encounters Agnes, a neighbour and friend of her
cousin, supposedly cleaning the cottage for her arrival but Gilly soon realises
Agnes was looking for something…an old book of spells.
We follow Gilly as she makes new friends and falls in love
with a local widower and we grow increasingly suspicious of Agnes and her son,
Jessamy. Agnes even becomes so desperate
without the book of spells that she tries to conjure something herself, with
comical results.
It was a nice pleasant tale by a local author with a bit of
magic sprinkled in. I look forward to
reading more books by this author.
