Scotland, 1703. Returning to her home town of Pittenweem, fishwife and widow Sorcha McIntyre knows she faces both censure and mistrust.

When a young local falls victim to witchcraft, the Reverend Cowper and the townsfolk know who to blame.

What follows for Sorcha and her friends is a terrifying battle, not only for their souls, but for their lives, as they are pitted against the villagers’ fear, a malevolent man and the might of the church.

To be launched by ABC Radio’s Helen Shield.

Join Karen and Helen at Captain Bligh’s to celebrate the launch of The Darkest Shore, based on the true story of the Pittenweem witch hunt.
