      Synopsis


      Salem 17th Century - A bizarre and deadly detour in history!

      The witch hunt hits feverish peak. Fear of the devil is as real as God. Witchcraft is a hideous crime a person could commit and is punishable by death at the Gallows Hill for the victims accused of sorcery.

      Driftingly, a red-stained full moon streaked with ominous dark haunting clouds is witness to the strange forewarn of the vicious lashing of wind and distraught flying bats, over dead bodies swinging precariously in the wind by the branches of the locust trees.

      River reflections of Bridgetâ's scantily clad youthful beauty with long, flowing, wild, red hair, is frozen in fear amidst the overture of the Bansheeâ's foreboding and bloodcurdling wails of imminent death, that of her own.

      The Peruke Makerâ's vengeful curse hastens chase for the innocent and is carried off by a whirl of ill-omened wind that transgresses all natural laws of time and space. But love and forgiveness triumphs beyond the grave and a chance at love and life is bestowed upon the worthy, at midnight of the Autumnal Equinox.

      Bridget's Reviewby bridget3420

      October 23, 2009: It is the 17th Century and Bridget Cane is the Peruke Maker's daughter and she is accused of being a witch. Witchcraft is forbidden and if you are even suspected of such a heinous crime, you will pay with your life.

      Sarah takes a journey through time and ends up connecting with Bridget in unimaginable ways. These two women have something in common and it all goes back to the curse of Thomas Cane.

      This was a fun read. I got so caught up in the lives of these women, it was depressing when I had to return to reality.
