Another sensational slice of Dark Ages Gothic from the author of the triumphant seller Company of Liars England, 1321 Welcome to the Dark Ages In the heart of the countryside lies an isolated village, where pagan Owl Masters rule through fear, superstition and murder. When a group of religious women ill-advisedly settles outside the village, they awaken dangerous jealousies. Why do their crops succeed? How do their cattle survive the plague? Are they concealing a holy relic which protects them from harm? The Owl Masters cry 'Witchcraft' and sharpen their talons. As torment and hellfire rain down, the women must look to their faith to save them from the darkness spreading across the land. Fear is a question of what you believe. And death alone the answer. Karen Maitland lives in Lincolnshire and is the author of The White Room, which won an Author's Club Best First Novel Award, and Company of Liars, published to outstanding critical acclaim in 2008.

This book got me hooked, and I hungered for more with every page I turned. At first I wondered what it would be about, and what I was in for. The first few pages were gripping, and then one was led into a twisting winding plot with characters that came alive with every page. This was the first book from Maitland that I have read, and I found myself up half the night reading it as I just could not put it down. I now crave for more of her work and I will certainly read all her others. I am now a fan.
