*** 
The last wolf in England hunts for prey. Exhausted, hungry and alone, she fears for the litter of pups she carries, and the men who seek to wipe her out. 
Yorkshire, 1649. 
Since they fled Ireland, Caragh and her family have hidden their true identities to enable them to start a new life in England. But when Caragh finds her parents brutally murdered by a Protestant determined to rid the area of Catholics, she must flee again. 
Travelling east, she comes to a forest, where she meets a coven of women who wear their hair loose and refuse to follow men’s rules. 
Having found acceptance at last, Caragh is unaware that a different kind of persecution stalks the black wood women, and their days in the forest are numbered. 
In this literary masterpiece by Sunday Times bestselling author, Michael Stewart, the supernatural elements blend seamlessly with the rural environment, creating a unique narrative. The story, set in a small town during the renaissance, explores the occult and the power of nature, making Black Wood Women a compelling read. 
For fans of S. P. Muir (The Evil in Time), Christopher Hardy (How Not to Drown a Cat), Jean Rhys (The Collected Short Stories), Ben Myers (Cuddy), and Maggie O'Farrell (Hamnet).
