A novel by

 
 
Scotland, 1597.

A time of witches and demons!
A time of cruelty and injustice!
A time of burning and torture!

Blighted by famine, plague and disease, Scotland is plunged into a witch panic the like of which has never been seen before.

A superstitious monarch, a compliant aristocracy, a fractured church and a fearful population search for scapegoats to blame for their suffering and pain.

The ensuing hysteria and brutality are seized upon by those intent on settling old scores and by those willing to grasp the opportunity to line their own pockets.

The air is filled with the screams of the innocent as they are tortured and burned and the sky is darkened by the smoke from their pyres.

John Seton is sucked into the insanity and cruelty of the witch trials through desperation and greed and must fight to extricate himself from the madness if he is to save his own neck.
