A treason of thorns - Laura E Weymouth

An enchanting, lyrical novel from the acclaimed author of The
Light Between Worlds.

When her father is convicted
of treason, Violet is exiled
from her beloved ancestral home, Burleigh House. One of the six great
estates of England, its magic once
kept her well - enchantment in its bricks and mortar
providing secret hiding places, even lighting fires on
the coldest nights.


However, on her return Violet discovers that the
place has gone wild with grief. Vines and briars are
crumbling the walls. Magic that once fed the land has
turned dark and deadly, twisting blooms into thorns,
poisoning livestock and destroying crops.


Now Violet must decide if her destiny is set in stone,
and how far she will go to save Burleigh - before it
destroys everything ... including the boy she loves.
