Notes:
Can Samuel Pepys save his sister from the hangman’s noose?As the Great Fire consumes London in 1666, a shadow falls over the quiet village of Brampton, where Pepys’s sister Paulina stands accused of witchcraft.Desperate, Pepys dispatches his unlikely inquisitors—astute housemaid Abigail Harcourt and earnest protégé Jacob Standish—to uncover the truth. But in a village gripped by fear and suspicion, whispers spread faster than flames, and reason is in short supply.Time is running out. Simon Hopkins rides to Brampton—the son of the infamous Witchfinder General burns with zeal, hell-bent on sending Paulina to the gallows, guilty or not.As Abigail and Jacob race to unpick secrets, witchery and lies, the noose draws tighter.To the God-fearing folk of Brampton, the choice is stark. Witch or not? Life or death?
