Here There Be Witches

Heather Hardison, 2025

In 1645, at a time when England was gripped by superstition and an intense fear of the supernatural, the infamous Witchfinder General, Matthew Hopkins, roamed the countryside on a mission to root out and cleanse the country of witches. Casting a shadow over the land, these hunts scarred generations of women for centuries, leaving many afraid to acknowledge or nurture their healing powers and intuitive gifts. Caught amidst this frenzy, three sisters, Alexa, Iris, and Hattie Wardwell, fight to keep their coven intact to keep their knowledge of the old ways alive for future generations. Despite their vows to only wield their powers for good, these sisters find themselves ensnared in the deadly web of accusations and persecution that grips their village. As whispers of witchcraft spread like wildfire, a rival witch with a vendetta that spans lifetimes aids the Witchfinder General in hunting Alexa and her sisters down. As the flames of paranoia rage, these sisters face heart-wrenching choices while weighing the value of their lives and those they've sworn to protect, knowing all can't be saved. Set against the backdrop of one of history's darkest chapters, Here There Be Witches is a haunting reminder of the generational scars left by this unimaginable injustice and the enduring courage it took to defend one's beliefs and rights to practice their craft in the midst of a wave of paranoia that spread throughout the nation, tragically wiping out generations of wise women and healers. This book is a standalone novel but is also considered a related/companion book to the Divining Sisters Series. In a sense, it is a prequel to the entire series because it follows the past lives of the main characters in that series as they battle the Witchfinder General in the witch trials that take place in England in the 1640s. This novel stands as a complete, self-contained story. For those who feel a connection to these characters after reading this story, know that their future incarnations are explored in the Divining Sisters Series where their spirits endure across time. Content Warning: This novel contains darker themes and depictions related to the witch trials, including persecution, torture, sexual assault, body horror, and graphic resulting deaths.
