A SOFT WITCH A Novel
by RUTH MUSK
What if the woman you loved was condemned for the very gifts that made her extraordinary?
In the frozen winter of 1692, Millbrook is a village gripped by fear. When the constables come for Abigail Moore—her only crime being a healer who speaks her mind and walks alone beneath the moon—her husband Thomas must choose between the safety of silence and the war of defending the woman who is his only light in the darkness.
This is not a story about spells and sorcery. It is a story about the witchcraft of being different. About a marriage tested by superstition, a community poisoned by whispers, and a woman whose courage burns brighter than the pyre they would build for her.
What readers will find inside:
A heroine who refuses to bow, kneel, or apologize for her own mind
A love story forged in frost, fire, and the quiet fury of a husband who will tear a village apart to save his wife
The true, human cost of the witch trials—told through the eyes of those who paid it
A historical setting so vivid you will feel the ice in your bones and the smoke in your throat
A narrative that asks the question we still fear today: what happens when a woman is too powerful for her own good?
If you believe that the strongest magic is simply being unafraid to exist, this book was written for you.
