Description: "In this tale of New England witchery, it is ten years after the harrowing and tragic events of the Salem witch trials. Abigail Williams--the lead accuser who sent twenty people to their doom as a young girl--now lives under an assumed name on the outskirts of Boston, quietly striving to atone for her sins. When a handsome stranger arrives claiming to be a sailor in need, Abigail takes him in, and long-dormant passions awaken within her. Love starts to grow between the two--an unlikely flower cracking through salty earth. But their contentment is short-lived, for someone else is coming for Abigail, someone who has been looking for her since she danced in the weird woods of Salem. The Devil is demanding Abigail's soul, and a debt will be paid--but first, Abigail must make peace with the woman she most wronged..."--Publisher's website.
