Adapted from Deborah Harkness’ best-selling trilogy of novels, A Discovery of Witches is a bold and arresting romantic drama that uncovers a secret underworld of extraordinary beings hiding in plain sight for fear of persecution by humans –they are vampires, witches and daemons.

He is driven to solve the looming threat of the creatures’ decline and believes the key to their survival may be held in the ancient manuscript. Matthew and Diana are instantly attracted to one another but this is a forbidden love that violates age-old taboos and crosses an ancient line between witches and vampires. And as they hunt for the manuscript and their relationship deepens so the fragile balance of peace between the species begins to unravel…
