‘Nobody leaves Poveglia.’
I thought that being a witch in 14th century Italy was my death sentence. Turns out, I was so wrong.
The true death sentence comes in the form of an invisible enemy: The Black Death.
And Poveglia Island.
The two are a dynamic pair of finality and blackness.
This is the island where I have been sent. This is the island where I will likely die. Sick or not, my fate has been sealed.
My name is Isabella Ricci, I am a witch who can see and hear and speak to those who’ve crossed over and now that I’m about to embark on a harrowing journey that will push the limits of my courage and abilities, I fear not even I will make it out of here alive. Because nobody leaves Poveglia, not even the dead.
The island isn't only filled with the moans of the afflicted and the ensnared; it resonates with the malevolent whispers of a darkness that hungers for the souls of the dying. I find myself thrust into a nightmarish battle for survival, navigating treacherous terrain while unraveling the island's cryptic secrets. I can feel the evil here I can hear it feasting on the souls of the dead and dying.
In this heart-pounding tale of magic, terror, and unyielding determination, the line between life and death blurs. I must summon every ounce of strength and cunning to face the ultimate question: Will I be the island's next victim, or will I defy the encroaching darkness and emerge as a force to be reckoned with? My haunting and thrilling journey begins now.
