En 1893, le concept de sorcières est un vestige du passé, éclipsé par les charmes bien rangés de la modernité. Les femmes cherchant le pouvoir doivent se tourner vers les urnes. Cependant, lorsque les sœurs Eastwood rejoignent les suffragistes de New Salem, elles découvrent des magies oubliées qui pourraient transformer le mouvement des femmes en un mouvement de sorcières. Alors qu'elles naviguent dans les ombres et la maladie, elles font face à des forces implacables déterminées à réprimer toute sorcière, même au prix de leur vie. Pour survivre, les sœurs doivent explorer la magie ancienne, forger de nouvelles alliances et réparer leur lien distendu. Le récit tisse une histoire de la lutte des femmes pour l'égalité, mêlant contes de fées et sorcellerie tout en réimaginant l'histoire.
