What is Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches about?
Rowan Fielding is a neurosurgeon who’s always tried to keep her life under control until she realizes that when her emotions spike, unexplainable things happen. So, as she digs into her origins, she steps straight into the center of the Mayfair dynasty, a family shaped by power, tragedy, and ancient rituals.
However, one detail changes everything: a mysterious, seductive entity named Lasher has followed the Mayfair bloodline for centuries and he wants more than to simply linger in the shadows. Instead, he nudges, tempts, and pulls Rowan toward choices that can flip her life upside down.
