Bringing Down the Flowers

By Denise Critchley

DO THE RIGHT THING - SAVE THE NATION

It's 2063 and the UK is facing a fertility crisis. The law states that every woman must conceive and give birth to two babies from the small number of fertile men left.

But Cedar Sweyn doesn't want to get pregnant. Nor do the other women she secretly supplies the illegal contraceptives to prepared by her hedge witch mother, Myrcia.

In denial of her magick heritage, Cedar prefers to ground herself in the scientific reality of herbalism. That is until she finds herself accused of killing a pregnant woman and her unborn child using a toxic herbal remedy. Fighting for her freedom, Cedar must do everything she can to prove her innocence and learn to embrace her mystical abilities if she is to protect those she loves.

For fans of The Handmaid's Tale and The Children of Men, this futuristic witch story explores what it means to have a choice and the lengths people will go to when that choice is taken away.
