Beneath this stone lie the remains of Meg Shelton, alleged witch of Woodplumpton, buried in 1705. After a messy breakup with his girlfriend, Alfie needs to get away for a while - so he decides to spend the summer holidays with his dad in a tiny village in the North of England.In the local church graveyard, he chances upon a boulder with a strange inscription - and meets Mia, who then tells him about the local superstition surrounding the stone."If you walk three times around the stone and say "I don't believe in witches," Meg will come after you.'Alfie, in a reckless attempt to show his bravery, accepts the superstition as a challenge. He thinks the story is nonsense. But it soon becomes apparent that he's just made the biggest mistake of his life...

The combination of a quirky little village and a long dead witch with a mysterious back story was bound to hook me in. The story was the perfect kind of creepy without being so terrifying I couldn't read it in the dark! Alfie and Mia are fab characters with enough going on in their own lives to be believable, but my favourite character was Hannah who I think could have a book all of her own! I really enjoyed this - highly recommended!
