Paperback (Harcourt Brace Jovanovich Jan. 1, 1992) , First Printing Edition
A fictionalized account of the Salem witch trails as told via the story of a young woman named Susanna English. Although Susanna has been told by one of the girls "crying out" that they are deliberately making up accusations, Susanna dares not speak up for fear that she and her family will also be accused of witchcraft. Will Susanna be able to stand by in silence as she sees other members of her community falsely accused?, While waiting for a church meeting in 1706, Susanna English, daughter of a wealthy Salem merchant, recalls the malice, fear, and accusations of witchcraft that tore her village apart in 1692.
