Legacy of the Witch by Maggie Shayne

Legacy of the Witch (The Portal, #1)

by Maggie Shayne

Once upon a time, there lived three witches…..

As a child, Amarrah loved her grandmother's stories of three witches who were members of the king's harem. But they were more than just stories. Amarrah knows she was there with them and now their legacy, along with an ancient box that once belonged to them, lies in her hands. Charged with keeping the box safe, Amarrah is heartbroken when it is stolen from her while she moves to America.

Years later, she is shocked to see it on TV and is determined to get it back. Tracking the artifact leads her to Sergeant Harrison Brockson, a handsome soldier who stirs memories of a man she knew centuries ago in ancient Babylon. Is Harrison the key to finding the box or could he be her destiny?

Prequel novella to Maggie Shayne's exciting trilogy, The Portal.

Well, that was interesting. I can see how this short story goes toward setting up the stories of the three witches. It did make me curious enough to see what happens with the first book in the series.

Legacy of the Witch was a free Kindle ebook I downloaded for the Why Buy the Cow? challenge on September 3, 2012.
