The Mushens Entertainment Team Attends the launch of THE NIGHT HAG by Hester Musson

The Mushens Entertainment team were thrilled to attend the launch of THE NIGHT HAG by Hester Musson this week at Goldsboro Books. Goldsboro was thoroughly decked with stunning THE NIGHT HAG decorations, from a whole-window display, to hand-painted THE NIGHT HAG little cottages being spotted around the shop. Hester’s black jumpsuit was even adorned with one of the gorgeous art-deco NIGHT HAG badges created by her publisher, Fourth Estate, and we loved her stylish commitment to the novel!

Katie Bowden, Hester’s editor, made a great speech stating that THE NIGHT HAG is even better than Hester’s incredible first novel, THE BEHOLDERS, and therefore, urging guests to buy multiple copies! Hester then made a funny and moving speech, thanking everyone involved in her journey to publication, especially her agent, Juliet, and hilariously comparing writing a book to having a rather uncooperative child!

Congratulations, Hester, on the publication of THE NIGHT HAG!

The thrilling new historical mystery from the acclaimed, bestselling author of The Beholders.

Scotland, 1886. Lil, a keen archaeologist, has arrived at Pitcarden to lead a dig on a Bronze Age burial mound. Having escaped the clutches of her mother, a famous medium, and committed herself to a life of rational enquiry, she is determined to unearth the treasures buried deep, despite growing protests from the nearby villagers.

But Lil is also privately plagued by nightmares which haunt her sleep and by memories of her former life. Caught in a fight between science and superstition, Lil confides in a mysterious doctor who she hopes might cure her night terrors once and for all. But who exactly is this doctor that Lil has trusted with her most intimate fears? And what secrets from her past might she be digging up, along with a long-lost hoard?

From the bestselling author of The Beholders comes this unputdownable historical mystery that will keep you guessing until the very end.
