Full Description
A classic story of superstition and sorcery set in 1950s France.
"The village which had so charmed her had grown sinister..."
Exhausted after years of unhappiness, 20-year-old Juliet Cunningham is delighted to find herself living in a village in the French Alps. Recovering in the fresh air of the mountains, she becomes involved in local life. As Juliet makes new friends and meets fellow wanderers - such as the handsome young Michael - she hears of stories of witchery, of fortunes told, of spells, and murder ... but are the rumours of the witch true, and can Juliet escape in time?
