IN A WORLD OF 1920S DECADENCE AND EXCESS, FRANCESCA MAY'S IRRESISTIBLE DEBUT WEAVES A DAZZLING TALE OF DARK MAGIC, ROMANCE AND MURDER.
On Crow Island, people whisper that real magic lurks just below the surface.
Magic doesn't interest Annie Mason. Not after it stole her future. She's on the island only to settle her late father's estate and, hopefully, reconnect with her long-absent best friend, Beatrice, who fled their dreary lives for a more glamorous one.
Yet Crow Island is brimming with temptation, and the most mesmerising may be her enigmatic new neighbour.
Mysterious and alluring, Emmeline Delacroix is a figure shadowed by rumours of witchcraft. And when Annie witnesses a confrontation between Bea and Emmeline at one of Crow Island's extravagant parties, she is drawn into a glittering, haunted world. A world where the boundaries of wickedness are tested, and the cost of illicit magic might be death.
