The Weight of Amber by Eleanor Vane is now available

We are pleased to announce that The Weight of Amber, the first book in Eleanor Vane’s The Thornfield Inheritance, is now available.

Scotland, 1593. Ailis Thornfield has a gift she cannot afford to name: when she touches an object, she feels its history. A wedding ring grows heavy with decades of love. A knife burns with the memory of blood. She has survived as an herbalist in the Scottish borderlands by hiding what she can do behind knowledge that looks like intuition and cures that look like luck. Her mother was not so careful. Her mother burned.

When witch accusations begin to sweep the border villages in a pattern only Ailis can detect, the English Crown sends a magistrate to investigate. James Blackwood is young, educated, and inconveniently principled. He has been sent to find evidence of ungodly practices. He is finding something else entirely.

The first book in a multi-generational saga spanning five centuries, following the women of a bloodline that carries a quiet, dangerous gift.
