This Fearful Thing


Southwold, Suffolk, 1645. Ann has fled from her past but when her childhood tormentor finds her in a busy street, those times she thought long-buried come back to haunt her. When rumours of witchcraft begin she knows that he will stop at nothing to destroy her…


Inspired by true events, this dark and compelling historical thriller is set at a time when the witchcraft persecutions in East Anglia were at their height and the English Civil War was raging. It tells the sometimes harrowing story of Ann Camell, accused of witchcraft, not once, but three times and her fight to survive.


How would it feel to be accused? What could you do? Will you ever be free?
