I am a huge fan of 17th century Salem Mass. The witch trials fascinate me in that they were so wrong. How mass hysteria touched such a small town and caused so much grief is so beyond me. I have found very few books that center aroud Salem and the witch trials that really have grabbed me. THIS BOOK GRABBED ME, SHOOK ME and TOUCHED ME DEEP!

The Summerland was a wonderful novel with all of the necessary ingredients to make it one of my personal favourites: paranormal elements, time travel and a tender love story.

Going through the gut-wrenching process with Abigail Parker was so powerful it was as if I went through the trials myself.

Abigail was a brave, caring and smart he...more

Abigail's trip through 17th century Salem becomes complicated when she falls in love with a young man of the time who is also connected to the witch trials. The time travel is handled well, but the real strength of the novel comes from emotions Abigail feels ove...more
