What this book is about

Simon, Jane, and Barney return to Cornwall and join Will Stanton in a race to recover a lost manuscript from the Dark. Jane's compassionate wish to the wild Greenwitch — a nature spirit made of hawthorn and rowan — proves crucial. The third Dark is Rising novel is the shortest and most Celtic in flavor, centering on Jane's instinctive empathy as a form of power.
