Rhianna Pratchett tentatively heads to Scotland, in search of a small but vicious castle-dweller, that soaks its cap in its victims’ blood – The Redcap. She explores why stories of such violent creatures originated in a region with its own turbulent past, and finds out how their use has shifted over time. The fantasy writer continues her trek across an enchanted British Isles to discover mythical creatures that lurk in all corners of the land. She's out to uncover what they can tell us about our history, our world and our lives today.
