Reseña del editor:

Set in 18th century Chichester this historical adventure is about a 12-year old girl, Damaris and her friend Peter. The mystery begins when they help a stranger who has been shot in the leg by bringing him to a "wise woman" with special healing powers. He seems a suspicious character.
