This week Katy and Rosie are joined by the wonderful Anna Caig to chat about her debut novel The Wise Witch of Orkney — and it is an absolute gem. Set in 1593 Scotland, King James VI is launching a bloody witch hunt across the country — but the women he fears most are already inside his court. Elspet Balfour is a spae-wife — a wise woman and healer from the Orkney isles — disguised as a lady-in-waiting and trapped between serving a queen who needs her and a king who would see her dead. Throw in Kitty Muirhead, outcast and desperate, and three women must concoct a reckless plan to save each other before the worst can happen. It’s gripping, atmospheric, fiercely feminist, and we had a brilliant chat with Anna about bringing these hidden voices of women to life.
Plus Rosie’s Bit on the Side this week features a golf club that becomes a man and has a very eventful time indeed. Katy had feelings about this one. Several feelings.
