Book Description
There is evil abroad in the sleepy East Anglian village of Talbot Magna - an evil that transcends rationality, that reaches back to preChristian times, that feeds on the Power of Darkness....
Kate Hargreaves, visiting her sister and brother-in-law in Talbot Magna, cannot believe that the 20th century would lend itself to indiscriminate cabalistic malevolence, or that anyone in the drowsy, centuries-old village would be involved in the eerie charade that was taking place.
But when Kate, trying to save the life of the man she loves, finds herself drawn into a vortex of violence, she finally faces an invidious evil that even her 20th century rationality cannot dispell.

An interesting anthropological look into small town life in England, which also has a coven of witches who appear to rule the place. The book felt pretty timeless and kept my interest throughout. I'm glad I read it but don't really have much else to say about it. :)
