Description

Witten presents a startling new theory of the Salem Village witch-hunts, which is certain to put this 300-year-old unsettled mystery to rest. Part parable, part star-crossed romance, and part supernatural venture, this is an intuitive human--and inhuman--history spun with a modern twist.
