In the process, they draw the attention of dark forces who seek to prevent the revival of witchcraft. Driven to create a better future-for themselves, for their peers, and for the new life growing within Agnes-the sisters search for the forgotten words and ways to give women the power to be heard, to protect themselves, to fight for their rights. But their love for one another proves stronger. When the sisters reunite in New Salem, their broken past and present fears cause misunderstandings and conflicts. Beatrice, the smart one, hides her secrets and desires in parenthetical thoughts, so that no one can steal them from her. Agnes, the strong one, feels powerless to take care of anyone, not even the life growing inside her womb she wants to be left alone, so that no one can hurt her again. Juniper, the wild one, hates her sisters for abandoning her and her father for hurting her she craves power, so that no one can restrain her will. In 1893, the sisters are grown up and divided. One day, he found the leverage he needed to hold power over them, and he succeeded in driving Agnes and Beatrice far from home, leaving Juniper, the youngest, at his mercy. Their abusive father despised, possibly even feared, their unity, and he did everything in his power to fracture their bonds. Once upon a time, the Eastwood sisters-James Juniper, Agnes Amaranth, and Beatrice Belladonna-were inseparable. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from the Publisher in exchange for an honest review.
