Event Details

Online free event on the 25th of September at 7pm. Remembering the Accused Witches of Scotland (RAWS) presents Danielle Devlin talk about her book Burnt Offering. This book is fiction and based on the Scottish witch trials of the 16th, 17th and 18th century.

How far would you go to save yourself when the truth can't set you free? Scotland, 1589.

Besse Craw is a young mother whose husband has mysteriously vanished. And in a time when women were powerless, she is accused of witchcraft, abused by her employer, and destined to lose her daughter, her freedom and her life.

Set during the infamous North Berwick witch trials (which saw many persecuted, tortured and killed), Besse uncovers long-held secrets as she fights for justice and truth in a world of suspicion and lies.
