The Lighthouse Witches by C.J. Cooke (HarperCollins UK)

All begins with witch hunt, trial and a curse. 

In 1998 the artist Liv comes with three daughters to Lon Haven, Scottish island full of legends and secrets. It is well known that children on the island disappear and come back with strange numbers on their skin. After strange events, Liv and two girls vanish without the trace. 

The narrative jumps in time, from 17. to 21. century. Folkloric, dark and creepy. The story about fear,  ignorance, hope and love.

Fantastic read for all fantasy and sci-fi lovers.
