Here is a brief description of Through the Yew Hedge:
This debut novella of magical realism explores adoption, inheritance, and identity. Set within the Silverton Estate’s medieval garden, the story follows Stella, an adoptee whose awakening “mirror-sight” becomes a metaphor for living between worlds.What begins as a fairy tale unfolds into a reckoning with truth, belonging, and the right to one’s own story.
