Book
1567 Aphra is not a normal child. Found abandoned as a baby among the reeds and rushes, the two outcast witches who raise her are never sure if she was born, or just pushed up through the foul, black mud for them to find. When a violent fire destroys their home, Aphra is left to fend for herself. Years of begging and stealing make her strong, but she is shunned and feared by all. Until she reaches Bryers Guerdon and meets the man they call Long Lankin - the leper. Ostracized and tormented, he is the only person willing to help her. And together, they plot their revenge.
