Opis

Three sisters raised in South Dakota, searching their ancestral roots, discovered a startling history. A distant relation, a Quaker woman had been accused of practicing witchcraft and was hanged in a village near Salem, MA. This occurred during the infamous witch hunts of 1692. From this bit of family history, the three sisters crafted COLE'S WITCH. They wrote a contemporary story of a relationship between Claire Townsend and Mitchell Bond based upon the foundation of the long lost love between two Colonial characters, Lilla Heyden and Cole Hathorn. The shocking revelations of accusation, torture, and government-sanctioned murder, tell a story that denies community, friendship and love in seventeenth century Colonial life. Claire Townsend and Lilla Heyden are the wandering, searching souls who must find peace, but peace comes with a price. Set in contemporary San Francisco and a seventeenth century village in New England, COLE'S WITCH is a study of the psychological and metaphysical strength of love.
