Deliverance Trembley lives in Salem Village, where she must take care of her sickly sister, Mem, and where she does her daily chores in fear of her cruel uncle's angry temper.

And life in Salem is never the same.

Reader reviewed by Jessica M.

Deliverance Trembly is a twelve year old girl who happens to live in Salem during the witch trials. In the story, you can tell how people gradually get suspicious of each other as the trials progress. It all starts when a few girls start to act strangely and accuse certain women of tormenting them in their "visions". It was all really riduculous back then. At one point, Deliverance's sister actually accuses her of being a witch. Read this book; it was kind of interesting.
