In Sanctuary the tension builds toward the breaking point.
In V. V. James's (The Gilded Cage) latest offering, Sanctuary (Sourcebooks LCCN 2020005118) magic is a well established and regulated trade and Sarah is the head of a coven of three other non-witch women, Abigail, Bridget, and Julia. Her shop specializes in charms and wards, potions and sympathy. She and her daughter Harper then stand accused in the questionable death of Abigail's son, the local golden boy and her life's sole focus, Dan. Things devolve slowly and somewhat predictably from there.
