The Murderess

On the poor Aegean island of Skiathos lives Hadoula, an old woman on the fringes of society. People seek her out for her knowledge of herbs and quiet remedies, and she knows the hidden hardships of the women around her.

One night, while rocking her newborn granddaughter so her exhausted daughter can sleep, a dark thought takes hold. Hadoula believes she understands the fate that awaits girls in a life of poverty and suffering. Convinced she is sparing them from that misery, she begins down a path that turns compassion into something far more dangerous.

The Murderess is a stark and haunting story of guilt, fate, and the terrible choices people make when they believe they are doing what is right.
