With one huge film (based on [[The Woman in Black by Susan Hill]]) written and adapted by women, and two launch books both at the hands of females, Hammer show the power of women engaging with the dark side, and seeing what comes across at dusk. This story embodies that very well indeed.
I must thank the publishers for my review copy. We also have a review of Winterson's [[The Gap of Time by Jeanette Winterson|The Gap of Time]].
The Pendle Witches have been dealt with before - we really appreciated [[Burning Issy by Melvin Burgess]] as a teen read good enough for all, that puts a fictional character in the mix.
