The Cunning Woman's Cup

Sue Hewitt has just published her novel The Cunning Woman's Cup.

It is now available on Amazon as a POD paperback and for download to Kindle or e-reader.
Here is the back cover blurb, if it grabs you look it up on Amazon:

When Alice McCleish’s gardener Brian unearths an object of great archaeological
significance deep under the compost heap it is not only Alice and her burgeoning friendship with Margaret Allerton, retired Professor of Anthropology, that are affected: the family, friends and neighbours of Alice, who people the narrative, are also touched by subsequent events.

Alice and Margaret find themselves questioning long-held beliefs about the material and spiritual world that surrounds them; and both women find their lives transformed unalterably by their newfound companionship. Serendipity puts Alice’s nearest neighbour, the troubled Violet Turnbull, in touch with the enigmatic Avian Tyler, whose mystical ‘gift’ offers Violet a promise of liberation.

All the while an echoing voice from long, long ago hints at the history of the locality dominated by the standing stone circle that bestrides the skyline above the small community of Duddo, while charting the harrowing story that reveals the provenance of the artefacts found beneath the compost heap.
If you read it, don't forget to add a review on Amazon - the more reviews the better!
 
On behalf of the Kelso Writers, I would like to wish Sue all the best with her novel.  I have read the book and I can recommend it. A good read.
