Beth's Grandfather is convinced witches don't exist, but in a land filled with the unbelievable, can she convince herself?
Beth was expecting a family reunion upon her arrival in Brisbane. Leaving the opulence of London for an ex-convict town was a small price to pay if it meant living with her parents again. Instead, she finds herself in the middle of a literal witch hunt. Her grandfather leads the investigation dragging a reluctant Beth with him.
The accusations focus on the once prosperous Eden River Station. Where once shearers and stockmen roamed, the station's only remaining occupants are the mysterious Mrs Richards and a brood of girls that come and go in the night.
But as the crimes turn deadly, can Beth identify the real culprit before the town turns on an innocent household?
