A Resistance of Witches

Stubborn, plain-spoken & from an unimpressive family, Lydia Polk never expected to be chosen to work under Isadora Goode, the Grand Mistress of the Royal Academy of Witches. Now, three years into her apprenticeship, & with Hitler’s armies rampaging across Europe, the Witches of Britain have joined the war effort – but not without some resistance from within, the British government having originally forced the witches into hiding. As Lydia’s power grows, she too joins the cause, tracking down magical relics in order to keep them out of Nazi hands. But a Nazi witch infiltrates the Academy with heart-breaking consequences & suddenly Lydia’s mission becomes even more urgent. Somewhere out there, hidden amidst the chaos of war, is the Grimorium Bellum – an ancient book that Hitler craves, a book so steeped in dark magic that it has the power to wipe out civilisations – an artefact that Lydia must find & secure at all costs.
