Death on Iona: The Mysterious Death of Norah Fornario and the Search for Netta - Paperback

In 1929, the mysterious death of writer and occultist Norah Fornario on the Scottish island of Iona captured the public's imagination. A century later, questions about what really happened to her remain unanswered.

Grief-stricken after losing her mother and grandparents at a young age, Norah, sometimes known as Netta Fornario, turned to the occult in search of answers about the mysteries of life and death. Her fascination with the elemental kingdoms, where the veil between worlds is said to be thinnest, led her to Iona. But her quest for the truth may have been her undoing.

Two days after she disappeared from her lodgings, her nude body was discovered on the hills by two crofters. The story of Norah's death has been shrouded in rumour and speculation for decades, with wild theories ranging from murder by faerie creatures to Aleister Crowley's involvement.

Originally published in January 2022 as "The Immortal Hour," this updated edition delves into the life, beliefs, and ultimate fate of Norah Fornario. "Death on Iona" sifts through the evidence and examines the many theories to uncover the truth behind Norah's untimely demise.

Featuring new photos and poems submitted by readers, "Death on Iona" is a haunting exploration of one woman's search for the meaning of life and death, and the legacy she left behind.
