A sinking boat.

A girl in disguise.

A disappearing sea.

When Fortune Sharpe carves a boat from a tree with her beloved brother, Gem, shes only having a bit of fun. But now is not the time for a girl to be drawing attention to herself. She is sent away to find work dressed as a boy. Luckily a rich manor house is hiring.

Yet Berrow Halls inhabitants harbour dangerous secrets of their own, the suspicious owner is hunting for witches, and the house itself is a little too close to the sea.
