1703: The wild east coast of Scotland.Returning to her home town of Pittenweem, fishwife and widow Sorcha McIntyre knows she faces both censure and mistrust. After all, this is a country where myth and legend are woven into the fabric of the everyday, a time when those who defy custom like Sorcha has are called to account.Based on the shocking true story of the witch hunt of Pittenweem, 'The Darkest Shore' is a beautifully written historical tale of the strength of women united against a common foe, by one of Australia's finest writers - Karen Brooks. Emma Harvey chatted to Karen about how her history in the army inspired her love of maps, representing the women ignored by history, rude Scottish booksellers, and the novelty mug her step-mother hates.
