England, 1649. A sadistic witch hunter. An innocent midwife accused of consorting with the devil. Can she escape the hangman's noose?From his father's beatings to his uncle's raging sermons, the orphaned John Sharpe is beset by bad fortune. Fighting through personal tragedy, he finds his purpose: to become a witchfinder and save innocents from the scourge of witchcraft.Jane Chandler is an apprentice midwife. From childhood, she has used herbs to heal poor women and children. But Jane's life is at risk when Puritan lawmakers hire John Sharpe to cleanse the town of witches.When Jane visits the apothecary to trade herbs, she finds herself accused of witchcraft. On trial for her life, can she prove her innocence and escape the hangman's noose?In an English town gripped by superstition and fear, two destinies collide in the first of three historical novels about real witch trials in the north east of England.Inspired by the little-known seventeenth-century Newcastle witch trials where thirty people were put on trial for witchcraft. Twenty-seven accused witches were found guilty, and fifteen women and one man were executed on 21 August, 1650.If you like historical novels about real witches, witchfinders and witch trials, you'll love The Widdershins Trilogy.
