Lost Witch of Windsor

Her mother was cursed. Will she suffer the same fate?

Windsor, Connecticut, 1647.

Alse Young is a wife, a mother, and a woman of faith. But when sickness and death spread through her town, whispers gather like storm clouds. Accused of witchcraft, she becomes the first person hanged for the crime in the American colonies.

Thirty years later, her daughter Alice Beamon carries the same stain. Known only as the witch's daughter, Alice struggles to build a life. She marries, bears children, and tends her household with quiet hope--but when misfortune strikes her neighbors, old suspicions rise. The voices that condemned her mother begin to circle her, and history threatens to repeat itself.

Told across two generations, this haunting novel explores faith and fear, love and betrayal, and the terrible power of a community gripped by hysteria. From the gallows of Hartford to the fields of Springfield, it asks what it means to survive when your very name is a curse.

Inspired by true events, this is the untold story of Alse Young--the first woman executed for witchcraft in America--and the daughter who lived in her shadow. Perfect for fans of Hannah Kent, Stacey Halls, and Margaret Atwood.
