A Falcon for a Witch

The year is 1590. She had wild black hair and topaz-coloured eyes, and a power over men which she scarcely understood. When she left her home in Welsh mountains for the prospect of gold and a silken gown in London, one man said that she was of those who carry their fate in their eyes. Before long another saw beneath her sweetness something cold, some capacity for evil-though she was not evil herself. Yet she loved Sir Harry Falcon, and he loved her more than he did his gentle wife, and he took her home with him to Kent. But with Margred's coming to Kingsmead an evil seed was sown that would affect many generations of the Falcon family.
