Official synopsis Publisher
“Let me repeat myself, so we can be very clear. Women are not the enemy. Whilst they may use their gifts against one another and against us men and – dare I say it! – even our beloved, innocent children, we must rise above their ambitions for power and desire for petty revenge. Now, we must work to correct the balance their female excesses have put out of whack. We must protect them from themselves, just as much as we must protect ourselves. In the words of our Lord, Jesus Christ: forgive them, for they know not what they do. Imagine a world in which witchcraft is real. In which mothers hand down power to their daughters, power that is used harmlessly and peacefully. Then imagine that the US President is a populist demagogue who decides that all witches must be interned for their own safety, and the safety of those around them – creating a world in which to be female is one step away from being criminal … As witches across the world are rounded up, one girl begins to discover her power. It’s a dangerous force and it brings her into contact with the Sentinel, a shadowy global organisation dedicated to the destruction of all witchcraft. Will Chloe and her helpers survive a breathless chase across Europe and the USA to find and save the source of all women’s power before the Sentinel can destroy it?”–Provided by publisher
