Fiction
Martha Carrier was one of the first women to be accused,
tried and hanged as a witch in Salem, Massachusetts. Like
her mother, young Sarah Carrier is bright and willful,
openly challenging the small, brutal world in which they
live. Often at odds with one another, mother and daughter
are forced to stand together against the escalating
hysteria of the trials and the superstitious tyranny that
led to the torture and imprisonment of more than 200 people
accused of witchcraft. This is the story of Martha's
courageous defiance and ultimate death, as told by the
daughter who survived.
Kathleen Kent is a tenth generation descendent of Martha
Carrier. She paints a haunting portrait, not just of
Puritan New England, but also of one family's deep and
abiding love in the face of fear and persecution.
