A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness (Paperback)

Historian Diana Bishop’s life changes when she uncovers an ancient alchemical manuscript in the Bodleian Library. A witch by heritage, she has long avoided magic, but her discovery draws her into a hidden world of witches, daemons, and vampires.

Among the gathered creatures is Matthew Clairmont, a vampire geneticist whose presence ignites an unexpected connection. As Diana and Matthew delve into the manuscript’s secrets, their growing bond challenges the fragile balance between magical and human worlds.

Amid old rivalries, half-truths, and dangerous intrigue, they must navigate trust, power, and desire. Each revelation tests their courage and the limits of forbidden love, threatening both their safety and the delicate peace of their kind.
