Anna and her mother have moved hundreds of miles to put the past behind them. A fresh start is what they both need. But then rumors and whispers start up again. Anna tries to ignore what’s happening by immersing herself in learning about Maggie, a local woman accused of witchcraft in the seventeenth century. A woman who was shamed. Silenced. And whose story has unsettling parallels to Anna’s. From Laura Bates, internationally renowned feminist and founder of the Everyday Sexism Project, comes a debut novel for the #metoo era. It’s a powerful call to action, reminding readers of the implications of sexism and the role we can each play in ending it.
