About The Burning
Anna arrives in a new town with a changed surname and no online trail, hoping to sever every link to the incident in her past. When rumours begin again, she becomes absorbed by the story of Maggie, a local girl accused of witchcraft centuries earlier, and recognises frightening echoes between their experiences.
