Description
A Crown of Lights by Phil Rickman In the isolated community on the Welsh border, a modern witch hunt begins, challenging the beliefs of Reverend Merrily Watkins, a diocesan exorcist. When a redundant church is bought by a young pagan couple, the local fundamentalist minister reacts with fury, and Merrily is expected to keep the lid on the cauldron. However, what she finds out will seriously test her beliefs. As Merrily delves into the mystery, she encounters a country lawyer who won't be parted from his dead wife, the enigma of five ancient churches dedicated to St. Michael, and a killer with an old tradition to guard. With each new discovery, Merrily's understanding of the world is pushed to the limit, forcing her to confront the darkness that lies at the heart of human nature. A complex web of superstition, tradition, and deceit unfolds, threatening to destroy the fragile balance between faith and reason.
