Step into a folktale of a storyteller meeting a fisherman, and the quiet power of a long‑buried curse.
About the book
In the rugged countryside of Scotland, a single moment of cruelty sets a curse in motion — one that echoes through generations. A Gypsy’s Curse follows a family bound to the land, to their secrets, and to the consequences of choices made long ago. As the past resurfaces, the truth becomes impossible to ignore, and the curse demands to be reckoned with.
This is a novel of hardship and resilience, of community ties and the weight of memory. If you enjoy stories where landscape shapes destiny, where folklore meets family drama, and where the past refuses to stay buried, this book will draw you in from the first page.
Reader recommendations
“This is such a lovely book! If you love Romani gypsies, Scotland, fiction, ghost stories, folklore, and pure love, this book has it all. Following a gypsy to a fisher village in Scotland, she marries but life is hard. She stays a very strong, independent, and loving woman even when times get horrible. For months the village men leave to fish, leaving her with an unapproving town. When her husband returns he’s not sure what to think for himself. Our gypsy is so relevant to today’s society and how we label people when we really aren’t all that different without the labels we place.”
