Date: Fri 20th June Time: 7pm Location: Cargill Centre, Kilmacolm Welcome to The Ginger Cat Presents an Evening with Kate Foster! Join us for an enthralling night when author Kate Foster will be discussing her new book, The Mourning Necklace. Inspired by an infamous real-life case, The Mourning Necklace is the unforgettable new feminist historical novel from the Women's Prize-longlisted author of The Maiden. They said I would swing for the crime and I did . .. I wear the rope-mark like a mourning 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 newborn child, passers-by avert their eyes from her cheap coffin on its rickety cart. But as her family pray her soul rests in peace, a figure appears at the door. It is Maggie. She is alive. Bruised and dazed, Maggie has little time for her family’s questions. All that matters to her is answering this one: will they hang her twice? Kate's debut novel, The Maiden, (2023) is a feminist retelling of a 17th century Edinburgh murder. It won Bloody Scotland’s Crime Debut of the Year 2024 and was Longlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction. Her second novel, The King’s Witches (2024) explores the origins of witch mania in 16th century Scotland. The Mourning Necklace is her third novel. Praise for Kate Foster 'Kate Foster can pluck a dark story from the depths of history and bring it to vivid life before your eyes . . . A strong contender for my book of the year' – Janice Hallett, bestselling author of The Appeal Kate's books will be available to purchase and have signed on the night. A perfect evening for book lovers, we would love to see you there! Chair TBC
