Publisher's summary

The Newcastle Witch Trials Trilogy: Book 3

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 witch hunt where fifteen women and one man were hanged for witchcraft on a single day.

The Trials Continued

Book 3 of "The Widdershins Trilogy" was as troubling as the first two books. Once the audiobook started, I had to listen to the whole audiobook in one sitting as I was captivated by the story and the characters. A new vicar moved into the village where Rose Driver has become a young woman. The author brought the people and the times to life with her prose. Her character descriptions made the characters seem real. Some of the trials that Rose faced were hard to bear as I was so caught up in the story. Christine Mackie's narration was entertaining. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.
