Discover the captivating novel that has captured the hearts of readers worldwide! Written by the acclaimed author of the TikTok sensation, "My Year of Rest and Relaxation," this new masterpiece takes you on a thrilling journey to a village in a medieval fiefdom.
Little Marek, a shepherd boy with a tragic past, finds himself at the center of a power struggle that challenges the very foundations of faith. Despite his abusive father's lies about his mother's death, Marek clings to the hope of reuniting with her. However, his solace comes in the form of his bond with the blind village midwife, Ina, who possesses a remarkable ability to communicate with the natural world.
Ina's home, nestled in the woods outside the village, is both feared and revered. Father Barnabas, the town priest and loyal servant of the lord and governor, Villiam, harbors a secret embarrassment of riches within his hilltop manor. The people's desperate need to believe in powers that protect them is put to a ruthless test as Villiam and Father Barnabas exploit the people's suffering during a year of record drought and famine.
But when fate brings Marek into violent proximity to the lord's family, a new and occult force disrupts the old order. As the year draws to a close, the veil between blindness and sight, life and death, the natural world, and the spirit world, thins to an astonishing degree. Prepare to be captivated by this mesmerizing tale that will leave you breathless and yearning for more.
