Previously Published as The Witch’s Portal
In this creatively written, profoundly moving debut, a mysterious woman offers five strangers the chance to see their lost loved ones again.
Since the death of her mom, Lily Rose feels lost. She’s trying to go through the motions of life as a wife and mother, but that’s all it is, just going through the motions; she’s lost her spark, her desires, and her ambition to succeed at anything. It’s only through the family legends of the mysterious woman Sandrine, and the tales of her secret Portal into a perfect life, that Lily has finally found a glimmer of hope.
When an anonymous letter leads to an encounter with a peculiar old woman, Lily finds her life intertwined with four strangers who share the common bond of grief. Driven by the desire to see their loved ones again, they accept an offer to travel through the Portal with the promise of their deepest desires awaiting them. The only catch: they must return home when summoned or chance giving up their real lives forever.
*Sandrine’s Gift is a women’s fiction magical realism novel that will sweep you away on a journey of self-discovery and pull on your heartstrings.
