Summary:
"Witches are hated in Württemberg, Germany, in the eighteenth century. It's not so long since they were burned, and any woman who knows too much, who's too clever or quick or skilled at healing, is suspect. Young Lilli knows this, and yet she also knows that the wise woman she's learning from, Alisz, isn't evil. She is teaching Lilli which plants
cure
a fever, which help a cough, which speed a difficult labour. She only wants to help people, and so does Lilli. But Lilli's father hates any sign of
witchcraft
and is furious at their connection. When Lilli is just thirteen, he surprises the family with news: they are moving to the New World. Alisz and Lilli pledge to be soul friends, inseparable by oceans or years...and across time, in present-day Nova Scotia, Lilly and Alice are making their own way toward each other. Lilli's learning and plight in the 1700s take front and centre in this multi-century story of healing, friendship, and the bravery it can take to be a woman who follows her own heart."--Publisher.
