1724. In a tavern just outside Edinburgh, the family of Maggie Dickson – hanged for the murder of her newborn child – drown their sorrows, mourning her death yet relieved she is gone. Shame haunts them; 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 one: will they hang her twice?
