For a maturing child, turning from sixteen to seventeen is an exhilarating, hope filled experience. For hope filled Margaret Jacobs in 1692 Salem, Massachusetts, it was quite the opposite. It was, for her, a time of unquestionable horror. Caught between the truth, and with it, her certain death, or lies and with them, her probable death but assuredly, the certain death of her soul. Margaret had to choose, alone. This novel, based on the true historical accounting, follows the remarkable experiences that paved that transition in the life of a genuinely courageous young woman and her accusers. She was arrested with her honest, God fearing but, irascible grandfather, and her sadly sullen, distracted mother, early in the Salem Witch Hunt of 1692. They had all been charged with performing witchcraft, a crime punishable by death. She awaited her execution while others, including her grandfather were being tried, convicted and executed for crimes they did not commit and knowing her turn would soon come. That she was treated as a repulsive, devil worshiping criminal, subjected to every unimaginable humiliation and threatened with worse was an almost daily experience in the dirty, squalid, closely confined cell of the Salem Gaol. The intelligence and bravery of young Margaret Jacobs in the face of certain death is an inspiration to every generation of people of any age.
