When Light Breaks Through takes us through the witch trials and beyond to tell a compelling, expansive story of what happened in Salem Village. In 1692, Ann Putnam is a ringleader in the witch trials that bring devastation to the village and bitter divisions among its people. In 1697, Joseph Green takes on the ministry that no one else wants and sets about healing the village. Together they will make an appeal to the community that defines its nature forever.
