Description

When does a story begin
For Edwin Hope, it begins with a childhood dare and a forbidden tree. It begins with him falling in more ways than one.

Called home from his studies by the grandfather who has always hated him, eighteen-year-old Edwin is once again trapped in a house that is colder than the winds whipping across the fields. Seeking sanctuary, he escapes into the untamed beauty of the Peaks and meets a woman who sparks an old memory. A memory of the sycamore that broke him, and the little girl who saved him.

Drusilla has had many acolytes over the centuries but none like Edwin. With the Great War looming and Edwins future uncertain, she knows the right thing to do is to set him free from her spell, but can she do so if it means breaking her own heart
