It is set against the backdrop of a tumultuous period in England, involving themes of war, power, and the mystical connection between its characters and the land they inhabit.

The atmosphere is charged with impending conflict, as Denise must contend with her role as a healer and a compassionate figure in a world rife with turmoil and danger.
