Perfect for you if...

You love historical fiction with women at the centre of the story, especially when they've been wrongly condemned or misunderstood.
You're drawn to atmospheric settings and want to feel immersed in a specific time and place, particularly Scottish history.
You appreciate stories where magic feels grounded in nature and knowledge rather than fantastical spells.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer fast-paced plots with constant action. This is a character study and confession that builds slowly and deliberately.
You want clear-cut heroes and villains. The moral complexity here won't satisfy readers looking for straightforward good versus evil.
You're uncomfortable with historical darkness including execution, persecution, and trauma.

About this book

In 1692, Corrag—a brilliant herbalist and orphan—is imprisoned in the Scottish highlands, accused of witchcraft and involvement in a massacre. Awaiting execution, she recounts her story to Charles Leslie, an Irish propagandist investigating the massacre and seeking evidence against Protestant King William, who is rumored to have played a role in it. Through her account, Corrag reveals a narrative of passion, courage, love, and knowledge of the natural world. The act of telling her story transforms both their lives. Originally published in hardcover as Corrag: A Novel.
