Description
Lucie Smith's life has been one of routine and comfort for nearly three decades. As the respected midwife to the local apothecary, she has built a reputation for her skill and care. However, 1665 is proving to be a challenging year, with tensions simmering beneath the surface. A series of events threatens to upend Lucie's carefully constructed world. A birth at the Manor, a disagreement with her son Simon, and a shocking secret from their loyal maid all contribute to a sense of unease that Lucie cannot shake. As the year draws to a close, she faces a grave accusation that could destroy everything she holds dear. With her reputation and livelihood hanging in the balance, Lucie must navigate the treacherous landscape of her own life and confront the consequences of her choices.
