Yet of one thing she is absolutely certain: She has become an object of scorn and a burden to her son’s wife. In these desperate times her daughter-in-law would prefer one less hungry mouth at the family table. As the friar turns his eye on each member of the tiny community, G?de dreads what her daughter-in-law might say to win his favor.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Then one terrible night G?de follows an unearthly voice and the scent of charred meat into the snow-filled woods. Come morning, she no longer knows if the horror she witnessed was real or imagined. She only knows that if the friar hears of it, she may be damned in this life as well as the next.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Witch’s Trinity＜/em＞ beautifully illuminates a dark period of history; it is vividly imagined, elegantly written, haunting, and unforgettable.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
