Popis: Set in 1684 Scotland, Barnharrow depicts the tragic consequences of religious conflict. When Covenanter rebels murder the local minister, Janet Linton is horrified to discover her own son Simon was involved. As tensions escalate between Protestant dissenters and forces loyal to the King, Simon embraces zealotry, tearing his family apart. This gripping drama explores the damage wrought by political violence and extremism, showing how Simon's radicalization leads him down a dangerous path that threatens his community's safety and his family's future. As relevant today as when it was written, Barnharrow is a stark reminder of what is at stake when extremists resort to fear, hatred and violence.
