We know the truths men have forgotten… ‘Visceral, twisting, propulsive – Black Wood Women begs to be devoured’ Stacey Halls 'Grim and glorious' Daily Mail 'Will leave you breathless’ Sunday Post *** The last wolf in England hunts for prey. Exhausted, hungry and alone, she fears for the litter of pups she carries, and the men who seek to wipe her out. Yorkshire, 1649. Since they fled Ireland, Caragh and her family have hidden their true identities to enable them to start a new life in England. But when Caragh finds her parents brutally murdered by a Protestant determined to rid the area of Catholics, she must flee again. Travelling east, she comes to a forest, where she meets a coven of women who wear their hair loose and refuse to follow men’s rules. Having found acceptance at last, Caragh is unaware that a different kind of persecution stalks the black wood women, and their days in the forest are numbered. Michael Stewart, the Sunday Times bestselling author, brings to life a rural renaissance town steeped in the supernatural and the occult. His literary fiction, Black Wood Women, is a riveting exploration of nature and the environment, making it a top pick for readers. For fans of Andy C Wareing (The Haunting of Edgar Allan Poe), S. P. Muir (The Evil in Time), Christopher Hardy (How Not to Drown a Cat), Jean Rhys (Voyage in the Dark), and Maggie O'Farrell (Hamnet). HarperCollins 2024
