The Elixir

Will the discovery of the Elixir of Life lead to a death sentence for a talented young healer?
Ann Storer has inherited her grandmother's mysterious gift of healing, and when she combines her talents with the genius of a young Isaac Newton, the two create an incredible elixir with seemingly unlimited powers.
But seventeenth-century England is a dangerous place to display any special abilities, and Ann must hide all evidence when a witchfinder arrives in town.
So when the plague starts to run rife and those she loves are in danger, will Ann risk everything to help them?
Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8.
