I had read "The Lace Reader" by Barry and enjoyed it, so I was especially interested in reading this book. There is something that draws me to stories about the Witch Trials, and particularly Salem. I have visited there and found it to be a fascinating experience.
I like this book! It held my interest and it was interspersed with some good facts about the Trials and Salem. Characters were believable ,but not well developed. The ending was a surprised to me.

Tension mounted and toward the became a page turner.

Our club really enjoyed discussing this selection that we WON the books (thanks Book Movement!) for our October read!! Put us in a Halloween spirit thanks to it being set in Salem Massachusetts
