Description
'Kate Foster is an exceptional writer and masterful storyteller' – Janice Hallett, bestselling author of The Appeal
Inspired by an infamous real-life case, The Mourning Necklace is an unforgettable historical novel from the Women's Prize-longlisted author of The Maiden, Kate Foster.
They said I would swing for the crime and I did. I wear the rope-bruise like a necklace.
1724. In a tavern just outside Edinburgh, Maggie Dickson’s family drown their sorrows, mourning her death yet relieved she is gone. Shame haunts them. Hanged for the murder of her new-born child, passersby avert their eyes from the cheap coffin on a rickety cart.
But as her family pray her soul rests in peace, a figure appears at the door.
It is Maggie. She has survived.
Did she bribe the hangman? Or was she touched by God? And can she prove her innocence before they try to hang her again?
Praise for Kate Foster:

'Riveting . . . the tension persists until the last page’ – The Times on The Maiden
'Enthralling, compelling and at times chilling . . . An utterly timely tale' – D. V. Bishop, prize-winning author of Ritual of Fire, on The King's Witches
