All Hallows Eve [Book]

A century after the witch trials, Salem is still not without its witches. When Alice Jacobs' husband disappears while investigating a series of strange and terrible incidents in the bustling seaport of Salem, she is forced to bring her young daughter, Abigail, along from Boston while she takes up the search. But she soon learns of a terrible curse that has the entire town bracing for nightfall: one hundred years after the infamous witch trials, the vengeful spirit of a woman hanged for witchcraft will rise from Hell to claim the souls of Salem's children. Alice dismisses the old legend as foolish superstition... until Abigail is snatched from her bed by a sinister woman made of smoke and mist. Desperate to find her daughter before the sun rises and she is lost forever, Alice races against time on a spine-chilling adventure that takes her from forgotten dungeons and gloomy cemeteries to the haunted forests of Gallows Hill. Along with a roguish sailor searching for his own missing child, she battles deadly supernatural forces and uncovers a dark secret that may be the key to saving Abigail's soul... if only she can survive the most terrifying night of her life. Suspenseful, thrilling, and dripping with atmospshere, All Hallows Eve is a treat for fans of Deborah Harkness, Shirley Jackson, Paula Brackston, Alexis Henderson, and anyone who enjoys having their skin crawl with every turn of the page.
