The Brewer: Salem Village - Book 3 - Paperback

by Pegg Thomas (Author)

A father torn between conscience and duty. A son caught between faiths. One family's stand for truth in America's darkest hour.

Salem Village, 1692. The witch trials have reached a fever pitch, and Puritan elder Thomas Buffington can no longer remain silent. When he signs a petition defending a condemned minister, he sets in motion a chain of events that will test his faith, fracture his family, and force him to choose between his standing in the community and his very soul.

His son, Benjamin, faces an even more impossible choice. Accused of being bewitched and forced into hiding on a remote farm, Benjamin discovers he loves working the land almost as much as he loves Hannah Jr., the Quaker maiden who has captured his heart. But their faiths stand between them like an unbridgeable chasm. To marry her, Benjamin would have to leave everything he's ever known.

As executions mount and drought threatens the village, both father and son must decide what they're willing to sacrifice for truth.

The Brewer brings to life the final, turbulent months of the Salem Witch Trials through the eyes of two men wrestling with faith, family, and the courage to stand against injustice.
