The first book in this gripping series, "The Whitby Witches", sees two orphans, Jennet and Ben, arrive in the town of Whitby to live with the elderly Alice Boston. Ben possesses the ability to see things that others cannot, and soon realises that Alice, too, has unusual powers. Then he meets the fisher folk, strange creatures who are blighted by a curse which destines them to die in childbirth.
