PAULA BRACKSTON is the New York Times bestselling author of The Witch's Daughter and The Little Shop of Found Things, among others. Paula lives with her family in the historical border city of Hereford in the beautiful Wye valley.

"By Chapter Four I was cheering 'Yes! We're going back to the
seventeenth century.' Dark events trigger a fascinating chase
through the centuries that will appeal to fantasy and historical
readers alike. Elizabeth and Tegan are back in a heart-warming tale
of witchery, female power and tantalising time travel." - Martine
Bailey, author of A Taste for Nightshades
"When it comes to deftly mingling different fiction genres, Paula
Brackston is something of a magician herself. The Return of the
Witch, the author's sequel to her first book, is a spellbinding
story comprised of equal measures of fantasy, time-travel, and
history spiced up with a generous dash of danger and suspense."
--ReadertoReader.com Praise for The Witch's Daughter: "A riveting
tale of sorcery and time travel."-Marie Claire "Well-crafted
characters in an absorbing plot and an altogether delicious blend
of historical fiction and fantasy." --Booklist "This pleasantly
romantic historical fantasy debut flips lightly between the past
experiences of ageless witch Elizabeth Anne Hawksmith and her
present-day life in Matravers, England... Bess's adventures are
fascinating." --Publishers Weekly "Stretching her tale over several
centuries, British-based Brackston brings energy as well as
commercial savvy to her saga of innocence and the dark arts."
--Kirkus
"The Witch's Daughter is a must read for anyone who loves magic set
in the real world, who craves a well-written novel with historical
elements along with romance and witchcraft tied into a
tension-filled plot and vivid imagery, and, of course, who seeks an
escape from their own lives if only for a moment." --Huffington
