Tidelands

Beskrivelse

Set during England's turbulent civil war in 1648, Tidelands follows Alinor, a woman marked by poverty, superstition, and suspicion. As she navigates the dangerous marshlands of the south coast, her life takes unexpected turns that put her at odds with her community.

A gripping tale of survival, suspicion, and strength in a time of witch hunts and civil unrest.

On Midsummer's Eve in 1648, England is torn apart by civil war between a rebellious Parliament and a renegade King. This conflict reaches even the isolated and marshy Tidelands on the southern coast, where Alinor, descended from wise women, struggles under the weight of poverty and superstition.

Waiting in a graveyard beneath the full moon, Alinor hopes for a ghost to free her from an abusive marriage. Instead, she encounters James, a fugitive, and guides him through the perilous marshes, unknowingly inviting disaster into her life.

In an era rife with witch-mania, Alinor's ambition and skill with herbs, combined with her newfound wealth and lack of a husband, raise suspicion and jealousy among her neighbors. Fearful villagers, convinced she harbors dark secrets, prepare to take deadly matters into their own hands.
