Imagine you're a young, 19th century attorney who has been convinced by Edgar Allan Poe to defend three people at what you believe to be a modern witchcraft trial, only to learn, after enduring a surreal and dangerous journey to get there, that you have unknowingly traveled back in time to the year . . . 1697. Your life and the lives of those you are charged to defend hang in the balance. What do you do? Who can you trust? If you survive, how will you ever be able to get back to the 19th century?
