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 witch Sandrine, and the tales of her magical portal into a perfect life, that Lily has finally found a glimmer of hope.
When an anonymous letter leads to an encounter with a mysterious white-haired 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 journey through Sandrine’s 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.
The Witch’s Portal is a magical realism debut novel.
