Return to Salem

Through a series of ill-fated events, Bess Martin finds herself thrust back to Salem in the middle of the Salem witch trials. Last time, her sharp tongue earned her 'high suspicion of sundry acts of Witchcraft', and she barely escaped with her life. Will Hezekiah, the brave young man who came through the rift to the future with her three years earlier, follow Bess back to Salem and rescue her, before her quick temper decides her fate?

From the ninth great-granddaughter of Susannah North Martin, who was accused and hanged as a witch, comes book two in the SALEM WITCH HAUNT series: RETURN TO SALEM, a realistic time travel steeped in suspense and intrigue with a touch of sweet romance. Using primary sources, Theresa Sneed masterfully weaves the trials and hangings of Reverend George Burroughs, Martha Carrier, George Jacobs Sr., John Proctor, and John Willard into this insightful historical fiction.

[The] Salem Witch Haunt [series] held me spell-bound from the beginning and then kept getting better and better. At the end, I found myself wishing there were more pages to read. Sneed is an excellent writer with a wonderful, engrossing story to tell. It has a clever, satisfying twist at the end. That she is a descendant of the people she writes about enriches the story. You can feel her love of the topic and personal involvement in these lives even though the story is fictional. Excellent read! - Jan M. Martin
