Shannon and Myrtle Winterbourne are no ordinary sisters. Not only do they live in an extraordinary house, in an extraordinary hamlet, but they also have rather extraordinary skills...
Nestled among a thicket of weeping willows deep in the heart of Dartmoor, lies a house like no other. A house defying the laws of logic-and gravity for that matter. Some might even say it had a mind, and soul, of its own. They wouldn't be wrong.
Affectionately known as Willow, this house has been an integral part of the Winterbourne family for over 400 years, and it is very, very protective of the Winterbournes, so woe betide anyone who dares to wrong this family of witches...
Willow Tree Farm is the very first magical novella in The Winterbourne Witches series. If you like quirky characters, magical mysteries and moments that will have you laughing out loud, then you'll love Suzy Turner's Willow Tree Farm.
