A new gothic horror by Scott O'Neill out 1st May 2025.
Edinburgh 1841. Every autumn without fail, a strange seed appears on the tree that marks the spot where the witch Margaret McKay was murdered. Legend states that anyone who catches this seed before it hits the ground will be blessed with untold riches, but when it falls into the eager hands of botanist Joseph Ware, the seed unleashes a devastating curse. In his quest to find the cure, Joseph discovers a resistance group battling to save the last of Scotland's witches from a sinister order of surgeons who believe the key to all magic lies hidden within a witch's anatomy. The conflict quickly tears apart the bonds of family, friendship and even reality itself, as Joseph fights to save his soul and avoid the anatomists' dissecting table.
