Publisher's Summary

The Fressingfield Witch is a fictional murder mystery based on true events. Two of Suffolk's darkest cases of witchcraft are weaved together in one compelling story.

Scores of innocent women died during the Suffolk witch trials. Fear and uncertainty swept the land. Years later and two unexplained deaths in the village of Fressingfield stir up rumours of witchcraft again. Private Detective Lawrence Harpham agrees to investigate. But Lawrence is still tormented by the loss of his family in a house fire. Can he overcome his own demons and discover who is behind the flurry of deaths? The sins of the fathers return to haunt in this intricately plotted Victorian murder mystery.

pretty good

I definitely got more into it as the story went on. In the end, I liked it. The protagonist was alright, and I liked Violet. The plot was interesting. The historical facts that the story is based on are just horrifying, and the book does a brilliant job of hammering that home (although in doing so, it comes off as a bit preachy at times).
The writing was solid, and I liked it enough to want to check out the next book in the series.
