Matthew's solemn pledge is to rid the world of the infernal necromancers' infestation. The witchfinder struggles to achieve his life's ambition. She has bewitched him. Cast a spell that killed his wife and sucked life's breath from his son. Elspeth's beauty melts before the mob's gaze as if she were a fragrant candle. Elspeth rises on the heat from the pyre and tumbles to Earth from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century. Louis, Elspeth's soul mate, holds the key to the gates of heaven. Not all may climb the silver stair to paradise. Loosely based on 'A Matter of Life and Death' with David Niven. 'A deliciously dark fairytale, brimming with humour as black as a witches' cat.'
