Salem Witch Story: The Tale of Sara Prince Osborne is a historical fiction novel based on the life of Sarah Prince Osborne, one of the first three women accused of witchcraft and the first casualty of the delusion that swept through Salem, Massachusetts, in 1692. While much has been written about the Witch Trials and what followed, there is very little known of Sarah Prince Osborne other than her actions that, by today's standards, would have gone unnoticed. However, in 1692, that was impossible. This novel intricately weaves the known facts of Sara's life with the rich historical tapestry of colonial Massachusetts. It also portrays Sara's sin, a mere flaunting of Puritan convention. Her refusal to bow to the pressure led to a no-win situation, forcing her to maintain her innocence until her final breath, a tragic testament to the times. Sara wasn't the only one in crisis—there were family squabbles and the minister, Samuel Parris, who divided the town. His efforts became the epicenter of the perfect storm that led to the events, an inevitable tragic end, and a blight on this country's history.
