Publisher Description
High in the hills of Scotland, an ancient evil has returned. One young woman struggling to master her magic is the only hope to stop it.
On the cusp of womanhood, Georjie longs to unlock the full force of her fae-given powers. So when she's invited to Scotland, she's eager to explore the Highlands' famed fairy realm hoping to find a mentor. But instead of unearthing a teacher, she discovers a mummified body within the walls of a seventeenth-century ruin.
Teaming up with a handsome amateur historian, she uses her earth-elemental gift to overturn the secrets hidden deep in the soil. But never far from the trail of clues lurks a shadowy creature on the hunt for prey. And Georjie fears it may have found its first target when a local girl vanishes, only to be discovered in an open grave with her life slipping away…
Can Georjie break the curse before ancient evil claims an innocent victim?
Bones of the Witch is the first book in the explosive Earth Magic Rises YA contemporary fantasy series. If you like strong heroines, dark sorcery, and medieval Highland history, then you'll love A.L. Knorr's unforgettable adventure.

Beautiful story
This book is exquisite. Now in Scotland, Georjie is facing a new problem and a new set of mysteries. Good thing she has her friend Jasher to help and a few new allies. We see the “real” fae folks for the first time and it will for sure make things a lot more interesting. I love the way AL Knorr paints the beauty of the landscapes. I loved this book and cannot wait for the next. Although it is a standalone series, I do recommend reading Born Of Earth first as it gives you more context as to who and what Georjie is.
