From the author’s website:
” There’s an extra witch hanging from the Salem gallows and the sheriff is not happy. Who strung up the mysterious beauty?
Arabella Edwards, mistress of the King’s colonial Secretary, bewitched many men besides her Protector. Did a rejected suitor or a jealous wife put a period to her life? Arabella had a hidden talent she used to ridicule people – did her caricatures cross the line? Arabella had a mysterious source of income – was it greed that ruined her? It’s up to Hetty and Creasy, two nosy Puritans from Boston, to discover whodunnit.
Hetty Henry is a wealthy widow with connections to high and low society. Increase “Creasy” Cotton is a young minister trained to uncover the guilty secrets of the human soul. Together they investigate the suspicious world of the Anglican chapel people with their noisy bonhomie and careless morals.
This time Hetty’s life is in deep danger while Creasy searches Salem for the person who accused her of being a witch. It’s Arabella Edwards’ young daughter Celia and her friend the Ferret who drag Hetty from the deep and help her solve the mystery. Out of the mouths of babes comes justice. Kemp adds humor to historical detail in this, her third tale of two nosy Puritans on the witch hunt.”
