The Times Bestseller
'A masterpiece' - Janice Hallett, bestselling author of The Appeal
'Exceptional - a tense, thrilling investigation, with a decidedly feminist slant' - Daily Mail
Inspired by a real-life murder trial, Kate Foster's The Maiden is a remarkable story with a feminist revisionist twist, giving a voice to women otherwise silenced by history. Winner of the Bloody Scotland Pitch Perfect Award 2022 and the Bloody Scotland Crime Debut of the Year 2023.
In the end, it did not matter what I said at my trial. No one believed me.

Only a year before, Lady Christian was newly married, leading a life of privilege and respectability. So, what led her to risk everything for an affair? And does that make her guilty of murder? She wasn't the only woman in Forrester's life, and certainly not the only one who might have had cause to wish him dead...
