The Vanishing Witch
Karen Maitland
Works of: Fiction
By the pricking of my thumbs …
Lincoln 1380. A raven-haired widow is newly arrived in John of Gaunt’s city, with two unnaturally beautiful children in tow.
The widow Catlin seems kind, helping wool merchant Robert of Bassingham care for his ill wife. Surely it makes sense for Catlin and her family to move into Roberet’s home?
But when first Robert’s wife – and then others – start dying unnatural deaths, the whispers turn to witchcraft. The reign of Richard II brings bloody revolution, but does it also give shelter to the black arts?
And which is more deadly for the innocents of Lincoln?
