The Mysterious Death of Netta Fornario
The Mysterious Death of Netta Fornario, is a chilling fictional account mixing fiction with the real events of an unexplained and still controversial death.On a bleak November day in 1929, Dr John Tyler arrives on Iona at the crisis of his life. Suicidally overwhelmed by his experience in the Field Ambulance Service during The Great War, Tyler has come to the Island determined either to make a new beginning or to end his life. Tyler Books into Traighmor, the windswept guest house of young widow, Ruth Blacklock, and her ellusive young son Duncan.
During a stormy night of dreams and visions, he meets fellow guest Netta Fornario, an Italian-English occultist and practicing Golden Dawn magician. Beautiful and extraordinary, he is unable to resist Netta or the equally intriguing Mrs Blacklock, and as Netta's health and sanity appear to deteriorate Tyler is drawn into a world of magic, revenge and terrible secrets, that leads to love, tragedy and final redemption.
The Mysterious Death of Netta Fornario, a Mull Theatre and Wildbird co-production, opens on Mull and tours in Scotland.
