The narrative centers on Barbara de Figueiredo, a Curandeira and Folk Witch who skillfully blends healing practices with magic, invoking both Saints and darker forces to protect her community. Her life, steeped in spirituality and conflict, is documented through Inquisition records and witness accounts. The book intricately weaves magical acts from these historical notes with the author's insights, exploring the rich cultural tapestry of the Azores islands and the complexities of Barbara's character and her influence on the island's people.
