Scotland, 1849: Midwinter on the remote island of North Uist and twelve-year-old Morag has a terrifying encounter in the dark. Is it a beast or is there a more sinister threat which stalks the island? As the villagers turn to folklore to protect themselves, Maria, the wife of the landowner, arrives on North Uist longing to escape her past. But Maria's past is catching up with her and time is running out - both for her and for the islanders.
A delight to read: a gripping Gothic historical novel. Written beautifully with real power and atmosphere." Livi Michael, author of the Succession trilogy.
For fans of Hannah Kent's Burial Rites or Sarah Perry's The Essex Serpent, Unearthed is a story full of magic and wilderness which explores themes of social justice and gender which still resonate today. A novel for book clubs everywhere.
