Solstice: Newcastle witch trials historical fiction

England, 1673. Still a world of witches, witch trials and witchfinders.

When a new vicar arrives to take over the parish of Mutton Clog, the village finds itself in the grip of puritan fever, and suspicious eyes are turned on Rose Driver.

Rose's mother, brother and grandmother were all put to death by the fanatical witchfinder, John Sharpe. Almost quarter of a century after the Newcastle witch trials, Sharpe is no longer a threat. Rose should be safe in her quiet village, but is history about to repeat itself?

Find out in Solstice, the powerful conclusion to the trilogy, which tells the story of one woman's struggle for survival in a hostile and superstitious world.

The Newcastle Witch Trials Trilogy was inspired by the little-known 1650 trials, where fifteen women and one man were hanged for witchcraft on a single day.
