Deliverance from Evil brings to life the Salem witch trials, one of the most uncanny times in our nation's history. Young girls in trances pointed out neighbors, leaders, relatives--over 150 people were arrested, with many hanged for their supposed sins.

She has written an extraordinary and gripping novel of hysteria, power plays, and love in colonial America
