Description
In the summer of 1688, Northern New England is a place of whispered secrets and hidden fears, where the story of Salem takes root.
Meet Resolve Hammond and her mother, Deliverance, skilled healers fighting for survival in their secluded coastal village. Taught by indigenous tribes, their abilities have drawn the suspicious gaze of the villagers, who accuse them of witchcraft.
When called upon to treat a poisoned woman, the Hammonds unravel a complex web of dark secrets that threaten to engulf the village. Torn between loyalty to their native allies and the increasingly frightened settler community, they must make an impossible choice.
Plagued by enigmatic dreams, Resolve questions everything she once held true—her family, her closest friend, and even her own identity. Unearthing the truth could have far-reaching consequences, extending well beyond their isolated settlement.
Inspired by the true story behind the Salem Witch Trials, "The Devil's Glove" is a captivating novel of betrayal, loyalty, and the formidable power of secrets. Will Resolve uncover the truth before the village consumes itself in fear, or will she become yet another casualty of its dark and enigmatic past?
Immerse yourself in this meticulously researched and compelling historical fiction. Join Resolve in her quest for truth and unravel the mystery at the heart of Salem's dark history. Order your copy of "The Devil's Glove" today and embark on a journey where betrayal, loyalty, and secrets collide.
Advance Praise
"From its opening lines this historical novel from Grindle (Villa Triste) grips with its rare blend of a powerfully evoked past, resonant characters, smart suspense, and prose touched with shivery poetry: “Nothing will lead you to guess what sweet familiars we were, thirty years ago in Massachusetts, where they called me Witch,... Powered by telling historical detail, vivid visions, and an urgent sense of empathy for its characters, The Devil’s Glove will dazzle readers who appreciate immersive, lyric historical fiction open to possibilities.
Takeaway: Gripping historical novel in the years before Salem’s witch trials."
