## About this book

Witch's Daughter, Volume 1, is a compelling work of children's stories set on the remote Scottish island of Skua. The narrative follows the developing friendship between two girls, Perdita and Janey, who both experience the world through a unique second sight. Janey is blind but possesses an extraordinary ability to hear, feel, and remember details that others overlook.

Perdita carries a more mysterious and ominous burden as the daughter of a witch. Their bond grows as they navigate the challenges of their isolated environment and the weight of their supernatural gifts. This volume explores themes of loneliness and connection through the lens of children's fiction, focusing on the atmospheric setting and the deep emotional ties between the two protagonists.
