Throughout the book, Fleetwood has to deal with being seen as nothing more as an interactive uterus in an expensive dress.
I don't want to say much more than that without spoiling the story, though I wish it had ended with the violent murder of her husband, Richard, and his friend Rodger.
Alice is one of the women accused of witchcraft and Fleetwood's only friend, as well as the only midwife who has actually helped her with her difficult pregnancy.
Don't be fooled into thinking this book is about the Pendle trials, it's set around them but at the end of the day, it's Fleetwood and Alice's story.

This books greats wrapped up in a very neat and complete way which I'm sure some will enjoy but I actually felt a little disappointed by it, as it seemed to undermine the drama and tension of the plot. The last chapter in particular I felt was unnecessary.
