Cursed by the Black HeartA Hansel and Gretel Retelling
Everyone knows the story of Hansel and Gretel… Or do they? The true story from the witch's perspective is not what you would expect, because after all - history can be twisted.
Cursed with magic in a land where it is a death sentence, Katharina is constantly on guard. Banished from the castle ten years ago, she still tries to make the most of her new home… until someone close to her is murdered.
Overcome with grief, she retreats into the Black Forest only to be confronted by the terrifying Dark Fae. Stories of his cruelty are that of nightmarish legend, primarily used to scare children into obedience.
As the lines between heroes and villains blur, Katharina finds that lies are being spread about her that paint her as being far more dastardly than even the Dark Fae. Can she finally make peace with her past and bring the truth to light? Or will the darkness of the Black Forest be the only place she can find solace?
