Salem, 1792: The Cautionary Tale of the Disappearance of Charity Jones

S.S. Engle

One hundred years after the witch trials wreaked havoc in Salem, something sinister has once again taken hold of the town. A young bride to be, Charity Jones, has gone missing. The disappearance is troubling since it comes on the heels of her betrothed’s assumed death. No body was ever recovered, but it was understood that foul play was afoot, possibly even witchcraft, though no decent person dare say such a thing out loud. While the Jones family is desperate for answers on Charity’s whereabouts, another wedding is also in their midst. This brings in an estranged Jones daughter who is less than welcome in Salem since she ran away from home eight years ago, without warning, tarnishing the religious family’s good name. As 1792 unravels, the Jones’ must be careful not to lose themselves in their search for answers. Will Charity ever be found?
