Another period of history that has always intrigued me is the early days of New England and the Puritans.  Probably since I lived in Brattleboro Vermont for six years in the 70’s.

Salem, Massachusetts is a thriving city about 15 miles outside of Boston.  The village of Salem, now called Danvers, is a lovely town by the sea.  It’s hard to believe that three centuries ago, such gruesome events occurred.  I tried to conjure up a mystery around the witch trials and came up with a conspiracy that would still have ramifications today.  Maybe?
