Publisher's Synopsis
Award-winning author Stephen Hawley Martin grew up wondering whether or not his seven-times great grandmother, Susannah North Martin, really had been practicing witchcraft back in the seventeenth century. After all, she was hanged for it. So he delved into the historical record and found that a great deal of information is available. As a result of his research, he suspects some of those hanged during the Salem Witch hysteria had been practicing magic. He also came to believe the commonly-held belief is off the mark that the so-called victims of the witches faked their symptoms. This is the true story from a twenty-first century perspective of Susannah Martin and the others who were executed in 1692 Salem based on recent findings of research into the paranormal.
