I confess that I am a witch. I have sold myself body and soul unto
Satan. My mother took me to the Blinkbonny Woods where we met other
witches. I put a hand on the crown of my head and the other on the
sole of my foot. I gave everything between unto him. Scotland, late
seventeeth century. A young woman is accused of witchcraft.
Tortured with pins and sleep deprivation, she is using all of her
the Scottish witch-hunt began. Probably more than a thousand men
and women were exectued for witchcraft before the frenzy died down.
When Edinburgh-based Advocate John MacKenzie and his assistant
Davie Scougall investigate the suspicious death of a woman
denounced as a witch, they find themselves in a village overwhelmed
by superstition, resentment and puritanical religion. In a time of
spiritual, political and social upheaval, will reason allow
MacKenzie to reveal the true evil lurking in the town, before the
witch-hunt claims yet another victim?
