Rhianna Pratchett heads to the Scottish coast to meet a shape-shifting sea creature called the Selkie. Selkies are seals in the water, but can remove their seal skins and become humans on the land. Rhianna explores the tale of The Selkie Wife. She delves into what it reveals about murky parts of our own history, and asks how it can be used to empower and help people today. 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.
