Reviews"The Bewitching is a stunning story about the power of generational knowledge that proves that any danger to be found in magic lies solely in the person who wields it. By gently leading readers through different time periods, places, and perspectives, Silvia Moreno-Garcia shows just how a story can be a spell--one I was happy to be under." --Jessica Johns, author of Bad Cree Praise for Silvia Moreno-Garcia "Whenever I want to read a book I know will be good, I go to Silvia Moreno-Garcia." --Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo "In Moreno-Garcia's skillful hands, you'll find the satisfaction of richly drawn characters, saturated settings and deftly constructed plot twists. . . . No matter the genre--gothic, horror, noir--she'll embody its essence with a verve all her own." --The New York Times Book Review, "In Silvia Moreno-Garcia's sure hands, every uncovered secret is fraught with intrigue and creeping horror.

This is a novel of eerie beauty, a book you won't want to turn your back on." --J. M. Miro, author of Ordinary Monsters " The Bewitching is un embrujo espectacular--a harrowing multigenerational saga that possesses and devours anyone who reads it. Dazzling, terrifying, and sumptuous, this is a 'finish in one sitting' story that won't let you go, even long after you've closed the book." --Marcela Fuentes, author of Malas "New England dark academia becomes Mexican folklore becomes tantalizing gothic thriller, and the weave binds ever tighter on each heart-pounding page--right up to the phenomenal conclusion.

It's as unsettling as it is unputdownable." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "Well-researched and beautifully written, The Bewitching will satisfy fans looking for a darkly atmospheric read.

SynopsisThree women in three different eras encounter danger and witchcraft in this eerie multigenerational horror saga from the New York Times bestselling author of Mexican Gothic . "In Silvia Moreno-Garcia's sure hands, every uncovered secret is fraught with intrigue and creeping horror."--Tananarive Due, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Reformatory "Back then, when I was a young woman, there were still witches": That was how Nana Alba always began the stories she told her great-granddaughter Minerva--stories that have stayed with Minerva all her life. Perhaps that's why Minerva has become a graduate student focused on the history of horror literature and is researching the life of Beatrice Tremblay, an obscure author of macabre tales. In the course of assembling her thesis, Minerva uncovers information that reveals that Tremblay's most famous novel, The Vanishing, was inspired by a true story: Decades earlier, during the Great Depression, Tremblay attended the same university where Minerva is now studying and became obsessed with her beautiful and otherworldly roommate, who then disappeared under mysterious circumstances. As Minerva descends ever deeper into Tremblay's manuscript, she begins to sense that the malign force that stalked Tremblay and the missing girl might still walk the halls of the campus. These disturbing events also echo the stories Nana Alba told about her girlhood in 1900s Mexico, where she had a terrifying encounter with a witch. Minerva suspects that the same shadow that darkened the lives of her great-grandmother and Beatrice Tremblay is now threatening her own in 1990s Massachusetts. An academic career can be a punishing pursuit, but it might turn outright deadly when witchcraft is involved., Three women in three different eras encounter danger and witchcraft in this eerie multigenerational horror saga from the New York Times bestselling author of Mexican Gothic .
