Description
NOVEL OF 2021 ACCORDING TO THE GUARDIAN.
BASED ON REAL EVENTS.
To save or to be saved?
England, 1643. The whole country is gripped by Puritan fervor. In the small town of Manningtree, after the war there are hardly any men left, and in the hearts of the women left to their own devices, there burns the fear of a curse.
Rebecca West, living only with her mother, suffers from a bleak routine enlivened only now and then by her fascination with a handsome young clerk, John Ides. But then a new piece appears on the chessboard of Manningtree—none other than Matthew Hopkins.
A mysterious, devout man dressed head to toe in black, he becomes the owner of the Thorn inn and begins to take an interest in what the women in the backyards of this miserable community are doing.
Dangerous rumors about witch orgies, conspiracies, and sorcery now threaten women like Rebecca… And the future of Manningtree—equally terrifying and exciting—turns out to be in the hands of one person.
Full of modern energy and dynamism, this story will bring to life a small English town of the mid-17th century, with its residents, morals, and atmosphere.
A dark, unusual, and truly alive novel based on the book by the famous witch-hunter Matthew Hopkins.
