From the Amazon description:
Many of us have known witches...but none like Jane, Sukie and Alexandra, a real coven.
Artists, they sculpt, write and play...but that is all for the surface. Their beings are submerged...and malignant.
Most men quail, but not Darryl Van Horne. A wealthy stranger who arrives in town, he goes them one better...he sets up as an alchemist.
In John Updike's hands this material takes on a life of its own. Updike examines how women cope when they are alone...and how deprivation turns them into what they were afraid of becoming.
