The Untold Story of the Pendle Witches.
Lancashire, England , 1612. It all started with a coin. A single, cold shilling passed between the rough fingers of a peddler and the calloused palm of Alizon Device, a young woman with nothing but her name and her need. She looked down at the man , John Law, a traveling merchant , and saw in him the same contempt she saw from every stranger: that narrowed gaze that weighed her by the dirt under her fingernails and the cadence of her accent. When he refused her charity, when he cursed her family’s name, Alizon cursed him back. Not with fire, not with brimstone , but with the sharp, childish instinct of someone whose powerlessness burns in the gut: “I hope your bones rot where you stand.” He collapsed not long after. His body failed him , a stroke, they said later , and the whispers started. In a place like Pendle, whispers are deadlier than wolves.
