373 pages ; 20 cm

Cordelia knows her mother is unusual. Their house doesn't have any doors between rooms and Cordelia isn't allowed to have a single friend. Unless you count Falada, her mother's beautiful white horse. But more than a few quirks set her mother apart. Other parents can't force their daughters to be silent and motionless - obedient - for hours or days on end. Other mothers aren't sorcerers. After a suspicious death in their small town, Cordelia's mother insists they leave in the middle of the night, riding away together on Falada's back. They arrive at the remote country manor of a wealthy older man, the Squire, and his unwed sister, Hester. Cordelia's mother intends to lure the Squire into marriage. Hester knows that to save her brother from bewitchment and to rescue the terrified Cordelia, she will have to face down a wicked witch of the worst kind.
