Prepare for a Devilishly Good Time...

In Witch Hunt or, A Discourse on the Wonders of the Invisible World, written by Liz Duffy Adams, ten years after Abigail Williams, the instigator of the witch trials, disappeared from Salem, she turns up at the tavern of her fellow ex-witch-hunter, Mercy Lewis. About to leave the colonies forever, it’s her last chance to understand the madness that overtook them. But with war threatening northern New England yet again, Mercy and her fellow townspeople are in no mood for Abigail’s doubts, which suggest complicity with the devil. And just when everything is most dangerously tense—the devil himself shows up.
