Bewitcher Hickory Crowl

'The Bewitcher is sly. Cunning. He's not the knight, sword in fist, charging the enemy. No, no, he's the whisperer, inciting men to do terrible things. He tells them when to kill. And who.'

It is 1666 and the Derbyshire village of Eyam is being savaged by a terrible plague.

By night, a crazed murderer prowls the dusty streets, the only hint as to why, a jagged cross cut into the victims' chests.

Trapped in a dying village, Reverend Mompesson must unravel the mystery and stop the killer or risk the villagers fleeing, carrying the sickness to every corner of England.

Nobody can go in. Nobody can go out.
