Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

From warlock to minister. From seeker of dark magic to servant of the innocent.In the sweltering, panic-stricken summer of 1692, the Salem Witch Trials consumed a town in fire and blood. While magistrates and hysterical accusers built a mountain of corpses, William Tarshish walked a darker path. Driven by a desperate, power-hungry thirst, he harvested the bones of the executed-from Bridget Bishop and John Proctor to the unyielding Giles Corey-brewing their remains in a hidden cellar cauldron.Each bitter, iron-rich draught poured into his veins did not grant him dominion; it imparted their memories, their unyielding courage, and their profound grace.As the bodies piled high and winter's frost locked the colony in ice, William's dark ambitions shattered. Transformed by the very souls the court sought to destroy, he locked the cellar door forever, leaving the warlock buried in the ash. Now, walking the muddy lanes of a broken village as a quiet Quaker minister, William carries the strength of twenty-one martyrs into the light-proving that even from the ashes of unimaginable horror, redemption can bloom.Step into the gritty, sensory-rich, and deeply human world of Boiled Bones, where history's darkest hour meets an unforgettable journey of spiritual rebirth.
