“A very little poison can can do a world of good”

Thank you to St Martin’s Press for sending me an ARC of The Bane Witch by Ava Morgyn. I appreciate the opportunity to review it.

Piers Corbin has had a very strange life and is now isolated away in her husbands fancy house living with a lot of dark secrets. Her husband is abusive and evil and Piers knows it’s only a matter of time before his goal of ending her life happens. She takes matters into her own hands and is able to find her estranged family who have very dark and deadly secrets of their own.

The Bane Witch takes the trope of a young woman returning to her estranged family and adds an element of magic which is a very interesting turn. Piers finds her strength inside which is aided by an old family secret and she turns herself into a weapon to protect not only herself but also innocent lives of women in her orbit.

This is quite a dark telling and a lot of abuse discussed and seen on page so please take care of yourself when picking up this one as it can be quite shocking and triggering if you are not expecting it.

The Bane Witch will be available on March 18 2025 at your local book seller or library or you can pre-order at my affiliate link here.
