Considering this trilogy grew from my debut novel, I don’t show the collection the proper love. Preservation. Retribution. The Water Witches want to preserve their sacred places at any cost, but sometimes the price is steep. This trilogy is about a naive and innocent American in the wrong place at the wrong time and a Scottish witch who is as charming as she is deceitful. Book 1 The Water Witches: Loch Ness, is an ill-advised attempt by a tourist to clear her name from an incident involving the death and disappearance of multiple people, including local lass Rhianna Ashe. Book 2, The Water Witches: Rhianna’s Legacy, is the unhappy rebuttal from the witches, a tale told from their perspective of the events leading up to the explosive incident at the end of Book 1. This book then follows the likable tourists returning home, showing how retribution followed them there. Book 3, The Water Witches: Loch Ness Legacy, includes all 3 books in one spine, and this conclusion gives departed witch Rhianna Ashe a chance at rebirth. There once was a girl from Savannah, Who studied dark arts and arcana, She traveled so far, by plane and by car, To awaken the witch Rhianna. But that witch did not slumber, Instead increasing her number, So when the time came, She burst from the flames, Reborn and unencumbered.
