Publisher's Synopsis
Desmond Harvey, haunted by a past he cannot escape, flees the relentless pursuit of a witch hunter across the wilds of England. Seeking refuge, he sets sail for the New World, hoping to lose himself in the anonymity of colonial Massachusetts. Yet, upon his arrival in the year 1692, Desmond's search for peace is abruptly interrupted.
On his first day in this new land, Desmond encounters four enigmatic strangers who claim to be travelers from a distant future. With their arrival, his world is irrevocably altered, thrusting him into a maelstrom of uncertainty and intrigue. These newfound allies bring with them tales of a world far beyond his understanding, and a dire warning of dangers yet to come.
As Desmond navigates the treacherous waters of his new reality, he is forced to confront the magic that courses through his veins-a gift he has long feared. Each step forward is fraught with peril, as he grapples with the weight of his destiny and the shadows of his past.
Will Desmond find the courage to embrace his true nature, or will doubt and fear shackle him to a fate unfulfilled? In a journey marked by unexpected alliances and perilous twists, Desmond and his companions must muster their resolve to carve out a future of their own making. For in the end, it is their collective courage and determination that will shape the destiny of Witchwood and beyond.
"Baby Jesus, Joseph, and Mary. You kiss her like that, Desmond Harvey, and she's bound to be yours until her dying day, and perhaps even after that."
