Thistle Finley is a small town herbalist with a mighty green thumb. Many folk in town think her a witch for her remedies and ostracize her for her talent. When her dog Charlie is hit by a car, her green thumb takes on a whole new set of abilities and she heals Charlie with plantlife; vines sprout from her fingertips and grow to replace Charlie's broken ribs and torn flesh, changing Charlie into a half flora - half fauna being. Thistle’s world suddenly turns upside down as she’s chased by black hounds, wraiths, assassin witches and a mysterious man named Mordecai who is out to add her to his collection. Thistle is saved by a fire elemental witch who takes a knife to the heart in order to save her life. She soon discovers, after healing her unexpected protector Alder Barclay, that she is the last true Hedge Witch, the last Haegtesse. She is the only witch left with the ability to meld plant and animal life, to heal what is broken, to create new life. And everyone wants a piece of her. _________________________________________________________ Now as an ebook for the Nook and Kindle!
