Once I started reading this book, I couldn't stop! I like that it was written from the daughter's point of view~a very different view of a terrible part of our history. This book will stay with me for a long time.

I also find it amazing that this is a first novel. I look forward to reading more from this author.

This was a really interesting book about Martha Carrier and her family, told from the eyes of her daughter Sarah. Although it took me a few pages to get into the story, once I was it was a quick read.

Mixed reviews on this one. Didn't actually like the characters but it was a fascinating and sad look at how the Salem witch trials came about. ...more

This is a book that is most appreciated by its end. It builds upon itself slowly. The story is heavily weighted about prison life in the second half. I found the imprisonment of the convicted disturbing and inhumane. Kent tells a good and thourough tale of life and witch trials of Salem in the late 1600s.
