Kirkyard Moon

Imagine how surprised 20th century Janet Murray is to meet her 18th century flatmate, Elspeth. It isn't everyday you discover a spirit lives inside you.

Shy, socially awkward, and confused-Janet is just trying to find a place in the world where she belongs. Performing medical procedures on strangers whilst in a kind of daydream, isn't helping her confidence at all. Can she tell anyone what she's going through without them thinking she's gone mad?

Elspeth endures spousal abuse and is accused of being a witch by those who claim to love her. The women form an unlikely friendship that defies time and death. There is much to learn from one another if they can figure out how to communicate.

Will Elspeth's history inspire Janet to step outside her comfort zone, learn to trust, and even help others?

Kirkyard Moon is a historical fantasy fiction book bringing two very different women together, all set in the natural beauty and brutal reality of Scotland's history with witchcraft. Rhys Shaw's novel blends the plight of women from the past and present day, reminding us of our strength when we support one another.
