Overview: Before Salem learned to fear witches, Boston had already chosen its first victim.
In 1648, the Massachusetts Bay Colony is ruled by rigid faith, whispered suspicion, and men who believe anything they cannot control must be destroyed. Margaret Jones is a respected healer and midwife whose remedies have saved mothers, children, and dying neighbours. But when her knowledge begins to challenge the colony’s physicians and religious authorities, gratitude turns to fear.
Mercy Hale, Margaret’s young apprentice, has seen the truth with her own eyes. Margaret does not summon darkness. She treats wounds, delivers babies, and enters homes others are too frightened to approach. Yet after a child dies, old grudges rise, frightened witnesses begin changing their stories, and powerful men quietly gather evidence for a verdict they have already decided.
Soon, every cure becomes suspicious. Every herb becomes a weapon. Every woman who speaks too boldly becomes a possible servant of evil.
As Margaret is dragged toward trial, Mercy uncovers stolen journals, secret payments, and a conspiracy buried beneath Boston’s righteous appearance. But exposing the truth may place her beside her mentor in chains—and the court is no longer searching for innocence. It is searching for a witch.
They called her a witch because admitting the truth would condemn them all.
Discover the woman behind the accusation—and the apprentice who refused to let history erase her.
