Murder by Witchcraft by Karen Perkins

Murder by Witchcraft by Karen Perkins

Based on a true story.

___________

Jennet Preston was an ordinary woman, with an extraordinary death. Pursued and vilified by her young lord and master, Thomas Lister, she was accused and tried - twice - for Murder by Witchcraft in 1612. This is the story of her second trial.

A friend of the Device family of Malkin Tower, Jennet Preston's story starts and ends in Yorkshire, yet is inextricably entwined with the most famous witch trial in British history - that of the Pendle Witches.

------

Inspired by the treacherous true events surrounding the Pendle Witch Trials, Murder by Witchcraft is a gripping historical short story, written with honesty and passion. Perfect for fans of Katherine Clements, Stacey Halls, Kiran Millwood Hargrave and Caroline Lea.

Karen Perkins lives in Yorkshire, where she spends her time writing as well as editing and formatting as proprietor of LionheART Publishing House. She has been a keen sailor since childhood, competing nationally and internationally until the day she had both National and European Ladies Champion titles - and a terminally bad back. She has written one novella (Ill Wind) and one full-length novel (Dead Reckoning - long-listed in the Mslexia Novel Competition 2011) in the Valkyrie Series, both of which are number one bestsellers in Sea Adventures on Amazon.co.uk. A further Valkyrie novel, Look Sharpe! will be published at the beginning of 2014, followed by Ready About! Both books follow the fortunes of Henry Sharpe, a character we have already met in Ill Wind and Dead Reckoning. Relationships are turned upside down and secrets revealed. Karen Perkins has also written the novel, Thores-Cross. A dark, haunting tale set in the North Yorkshire Moors about isolation, superstition and persecution, Thores-Cross follows the stories of Emma, a present day writer, and Jennet, an eighteenth century witch. Thores-Cross is a number one bestseller in British Horror on Amazon.com. In the LionheART series of publishing guides, The LionheART Guide to Formatting is now available and the UK and US editions of The LionheART Guide to Editing Fiction will be available soon.
