When a redundant church is bought by a young pagan couple, the local fundamentalist minister reacts with fury. In an isolated community on the Welsh border, a modern witch hunt begins. Diocesan exorcist Merrily Watkins is expected to keep the lid on the cauldron... but what she finds out will seriously test her beliefs.

And a killer with an old tradition to guard...

A Crown of Lights

Phil Rickman: A Crown of Lights (UK 2001)

From the Publisher:
A disused church near a Welsh border hamlet has already been sold off by the Church when it's discovered that the new owners are 'pagans' who intend to use the building for their own rituals. The local rector, an extreme evangelical, is appalled and blames these inoffensive middle-class witches for infesting the whole community with evil... even calling in the diocesan exorcist, Revd Merrily Watkins. An atmosphere of stifling menace develops - with the persecution of innocent people, false accusations, and the formation of a Christian vigilante group. As this cauldron of conflict threatens to boil over into serious violence, Merrily uses all the diplomacy she can muster. But, as the confrontation moves towards its climax at Candlemass, she is unaware of a personal threat against her from a deranged and violent man.

For Rev. Merrily Watkins, as diocesan exorcist, her latest spiritual challenge will unfold in Radnor Forest, a place of ancient mystery and primeval ritual. The trouble starts when Betty and Robin Thorogood buy a farmhouse with a partly ruined church on its land. For their pagan religious practices provoke reaction from the local minister. The scene is now set for a modern witchhunt, and Merrily must tread very carefully in order to keep a lid on this cauldron.
