Book Description
Growing up in a small English village in the 1800s, Catherine Howe could have never predicted her otherwise ordinary life would turn out the way it did. Soon after she begins secretly learning witchcraft from a domestic servant, Catherine's neighbors start witnessing strange occurrences they believe are related to Catherine's peculiar adopted brother, Max. Following an unforeseen, tragic event, Catherine clandestinely flees her homeland for America. After adjusting to a new life in an oceanside New England town, she soon discovers that in order to prevent further tragedy, a deadly part of her tumultuous past must be reckoned with. Inspired by elements of Wuthering Heights, the films Let the Right One In and Nosferatu the Vampyre, the Salem witch trials, and the music and lyrics of Marc Bolan, Now We Have Nothing follows the unusual siblings Catherine and Max Howe over hundreds of years into the present-day as they struggle independently for survival and a sense of identity in a world where their secrets could cost them their lives.
