BOOK LAUNCH - The Changeling by Kate Forsyth
Join Petrarch's Bookshop at St Lukes Launceston as we launch The Changeling by Kate Forsyth in conversation with Maggie Mackellar.
Inspired by the true story of Scotland’s first witch-hunt, The Changeling is a spellbinding tale of witchcraft, forbidden love and defying fate.
On her fourteenth birthday, Caiti NicNeven discovers her true mother is the queen of the Sidhe, the faery folk who dwell beneath Scotland’s hollow hills.
Drawing on a dangerous magic she barely understands, Caiti flees. She finds refuge at the treacherous court of Mary, Queen of Scots. As fear and religious fervour grip the country, Mary is pressured into passing an Anti-Witchcraft Act, placing every woman – and every whispered spell – in peril.
Book sales available at the event.
Ticket includes a drink on arrival.
