Reviews

Goodreads review by Jo

This novella is about the Yorkshire woman Jennet Preston who was executed for witchcraft in the early 17th century. It's such a sad little story although told exceedingly well.......more

Great read I thoroughly enjoyed this short story. Gripping and historic. Leaves you wanting more of the story. Worth the time to read.......more

Goodreads review by Katia

I enjoyed this quick read story. It built an atmosphere and I could feel and smell the cloying dungeon. The fear jennet must have felt oozed off the page. To know the story is based on true events makes it doubly horrid. It's always hard to tell a story in first person that ends the way this one does......more
