The Red Barn fascinated and horrified the British public in 1828 and even now, nearly two hundred years later, conjecture and rumours abound. This book is a work of fiction, but based on as many truths as the author L M West could find in her extensive research on the story. Recently published and on sale in our shop now. Written by the author of The Suffolk Witches Collection.
