One Foot in the Ether: Whispers of the Pendle Witches

Release Date: September 29, 2025

Genre: Historical Fantasy/ Witches Kayleigh Kavanagh 

More than two hundred and fifty years after the infamous Pendle Witch Trials, the spirits of rival witches Demdike and Chattox remain tethered to their bloodlines—watching, waiting, and bound by unfinished business.

Now, in the late eighteen hundreds, a pragmatic midwife and a troubled young psychic—descendants of the two witches—are drawn into a haunting legacy. An ancient being is stirring—an angry god of the old world, hungry for vengeance and ready to consume the future.

To stop it, the living and the dead must unite, recovering the lost knowledge of their craft. Whilst facing age-old problems and new foes. Some spirits don’t rest easy, and in Pendle, they’re clawing their way back from the past.

Winter is coming to Thalesai and ashes will fall…

My kingdom, Thalesai, stands at the edge of a great war as the king of the darkness steers his forces against us. Within our own borders, a rebellion simmers as tribes threaten to split and rulers start to take sides, leaving the wounds the kingdom suffered at the coronation still open and bleeding.

Dathan and I are no longer aligned.

He’s been sent across the sea on a mission shrouded in secrecy, tasked with stealing fragments of an ancient weapon lost to myth. And me? The Commandant has given me orders that place me directly

in his path. Once again, we’re rivals—our missions at odds. And yet… how do I stop a man who once fought by my side? Whose touch still lingers like fire on my skin? How do I stay cold when our hearts burn for more? Everyone insists that what sparked between us is doomed. Our families demand we sever whatever bond was forged.

But what Dathan and I have is not so easily broken.

We’ll sail treacherous seas, infiltrate kingdoms where death wears a crown, and battle beasts older than the bones of the earth But the hardest war waits within us.

Because if we don’t confront the darkness of our pasts…

Then Thalesai will fall.

And so will we.
