Description

In the heart of rural England, an isolated village is ruled by pagan Owl Masters who wield fear and superstition. When a group of religious women settle outside the village, they unwittingly spark jealousy and danger. The villagers cry 'Witchcraft' as the women's crops flourish and their cattle survive the plague. But are these successes due to some hidden force or a holy relic that protects them? As torment and hellfire descend upon the land, the women must turn to their faith for salvation. Fear is a potent force in this dark world, where death alone may be the answer. Karen Maitland's gripping tale explores the dangers of superstition and the power of faith in the face of darkness.
