Sinossi

One morning in 1750, in the kitchen of a house on a coastal farm, Tamsin Bennett is stricken with a ghastly vision of her Papa. That day inexplicably he is found dead under the wheel of the tide mill. In peril, Tamsin must flee the farm, leave Grandmother Cat and the cousin she loves, and go with her mother to a place that may be safe – or not.

Now keeping an inn and tavern in a harbor town, Tamsin hides in plain sight to carry on the healing work of her foremothers. Trained in the ancient lineage of the Rowan women, she mixes extracts to put into the tavern’s ale, alters food with herbs, protects her family from threat, and chooses her lovers with particular care.

The Rowans is a historical novel woven with magical realism, inspired by a woman who started her own business in 1752, of necessity.
