The Summer Witch
When seventeen-year-old Carys is married off to Jone Farmer, an ageing, childless widower, she has no choice but to make the best of it. Her father is greedy for the bride-price, and he is not a man to be disobeyed.
Jone, though, proves kindly, and, sensitive to Carys’s feelings, does not demand his rights as a husband. Carys does not want to remain a virgin, so in her frustration she invents an imaginary lover in the unlikely form of a tattered scarecrow that stands in Jone’s field. It’s only a game...until an encounter with the travelling Wayfarer people, renowned for their magical skills, offers her the power to turn fantasy into reality.
It’s a temptation too great to resist. But power is heady wine...and if Carys should use it unwisely, then her heart’s desire could become her soul’s ruin...
