From 2024. Fiction Data Base says, "Inspired by the true story of the last person to be tried and executed as a witch in the British Isles, The Last Witch of Scotland reimagines how Janet Horne came to be accused of witchcraft."

Review: 'Compelling, evocative, heart-wrenching and beautifully written. Highly recommended.' - Fiona Valpy, author, The Dressmaker's Gift.
