Newcastle, 1650.
Fog coils over the Tyne. The bells toll through a city consumed by fear.
When a Scottish witch-finder is summoned to cleanse Newcastle of the Devil’s work, thirty souls are accused — and fifteen condemned to die. Among them are women and one man whose only crime was to live in an age where faith and superstition were one.
The River Remembereth: A Chronicle of the Newcastle Witch Trials reimagines one of England’s darkest chapters with haunting lyricism and historical precision. Through the voices of magistrates, soldiers, clerks, the condemned, and the witch-finder himself, it reveals how fear becomes law, and how conscience survives where justice fails.
At once a work of historical fiction and gothic horror, this novel bears witness to the tyranny of belief — and to the river that remembers what men forget.
“Let the truth stand, though it condemn us. The river remembereth.”
